Sulphur Hexaflouride: The Barry White Gas

 
It’s colourless, odourless, non-toxic, and non-flammable. Just like tofu. And much like tofu, Sulphur Hexaflouride gas is also six times denser than air which means it can be stored happily in open containers without escaping. We’ve all seen the crazy helium voices people can make when sucking in lungfuls of that inert gas.  Have you ever wondered if there was such a thing as anti-helium ?  Well according to the anti-periodic table there is no elemental gas that meets the requirements, however the molecular gas sulphur hexafluoride DOES fit the bill nicely.  Observe…
 
 
Now with the help of sulphur hexaflouride, or SF6 as he’s known to his friends,  you can sound just like soul legend Barry White at a moments notice. Sure to impress the ladies… or have them running onto the streets in fear, it’s all good.

Moments In Time Caputured In One Take

 
This is an interesting and clever short film. I say that because really it deserves more than the tag of simple "video". Clearly a lot of thought and effort went into the production. The results are high quality.
 

 
An interesting combination of time-lapse and stop-motion.
After watching, click HERE to reveal a surprising twist.

WWW = Worlds Worst Wesbite Designs

 
Now we’re not saying that WD is going to win a Web 2.0 design award, but our layout is clean and simple, content is orderly and easy to find. WD scales well across different monitor widths, and plays nicely with modern browsers.  All in all, we like to think that WD is a "nice" site to visit.  Then you come across sites out there like these:
 
I Think Jebus Has Been Taking Acid 
 
This is actually one time that I recommend you view the sites using the INTERNET EXPLORER browser in order to get the full effect of the awfulness. I tried it with Firefox, and then again with Internet Explorer. It’s even MORE of an experience.  Try it for yourself.
 
These web designers need a trip to the knackery. And don’t forget to SCROLL RIGHT 
 
Prepare to be dazzled by Mia… and nauseous at the same time.
 
But it’s just terrible and qualifies for this list. Cheesey music included.
 
This site will make you car-sick and possibly give you epilepsy.
Warning - contains links to girls with boobies.  
 
Proof that a trailer-park lifestyle involves marrying your cousin/sister. 
 
C’mon dude…there’s bad… and then there is not even trying.
 
Even free ugly… is still ugly.
 
This guy should ask for a refund from his X dealer. Clearly a bad batch.
 
Can only hope he forgives the designers of this website.
 
Do you have examples of TRULY awful website designs. Let us know. Send a link to wdcontent@timdotnet.net or leave a comment.

A Possible Problematic Street Name

 
On the surface this appears to be a regular crime story reporting on a regular suburban Friday stabbing that’s becoming so commonplace in our society today that you might wonder WHY it even rates a mention here on the pages of WD. Well click the picture and read the article until you find the reason. clue: the name of the street where the accused was arrested.
 
Click for the full story
 
Imagine trying to order pizza living on this street.  Or placing credit-card orders over the phone. Or giving the cabbie your address at 3.15am after a big night out.    Note also the name of the photographer.  If he lived on this street just imagine the kind of trouble HE would have trying to taken seriously when giving out his name and address
 
UPDATE:  Click HERE to view the actual street in all it’s glory.

Songs Of Praise - Now With Subtitles

 
Remembering the words to many religious songs can be hard. Now you’ll never have to "fake" those words during church sing-a-long at your local house of worship. 
 
 
Makes a lot more sense this way I think you’ll all agree

Would You Hire This Guy As Your Lawyer ?

 
The law firm of Brady, Connolly & Masuda - Attorneys At Law in Chicago, Illinois has a company website. Nothing unusual there. On that website they have professional bio’s of the attorneys that work there. Nothing unusual there either.
 
Normally when a company creates such a profile they will use a picture that does justice to the individual involved. Something flattering. Something that inspires confidence with potential customers. All sounds good right ?   Well apparently something slipped through the cracks over at Brady, Connolly & Masuda that leave us asking the question…
 
Your honour.. if it pleases the court I'd like to plead INSANITY !!!
 
Would you hire Michael Brandow to represent YOU in court
