here’s a look at a time magazine special feature covering what they consider to be the 5 worst websites of 2007, and what i think will replace them.

eHarmony (eharmony.com)
Why they hate it: “Our main beef with this online dating site is its power to cause utter despair. The site also discriminates against gays.”
Alternatives: im in like with you

Evite (evite.com)
Why they hate it: “The site, in short, is crying out for an overhaul. The ads are intrusive and navigation’s a drag.”
Alternatives: Upcoming.org

Meez (meez.com)
Why they hate it: “Just plain annoying. The company insists the app is neither spyware nor adware, but it can still slow your computer down.”
Alternatives: plain old e-mail

MySpace (myspace.com)
Why they hate it: “It seems the community has become infested with marketers and other opportunists who create false profiles and essentially spam other users, all under the guise of ‘making friends’.”
Alternatives: Facebook

Second Life (secondlife.com)
Why they hate it: “notoriously slow to load… difficult to navigate… creating and personalizing [the] animated representation of yourself is tedious. Movements feel clunky and there can be a terrible lag… learning curve is simply too steep.”
Alternatives: Real life
