Worst Commercial Site
November 22, 2005
It's that time of year again - when IQContent announce their 'worst corporate site in Ireland' award. Hot on the heels of the recent IIA web awards, I really enjoy the IQ Content one because it always gives me a laugh.
This year's 'winner' or loser is the cinema plex at Dundrum Shopping Centre. You'd think with all that money swishing around they'd have got a decent website up for the cinema? But no, it smacks of an organisation that doesn't appreciate good design and online purchasing of movie tickets.
See for yourself how bad it is: http://www.moviesatdundrum.ie/
There are rotating images on the home page and there's 1 of Bill Murray looking really nervous, looks like he's just had a peek at the site too!!
And if you want to read IQ Content's usability review of it, you can do that here: http://iqcontent.com/publications/features/article_66/
I do have to point out however that the sunflower image on IQ Content's new look website is the same one that has been used for ages by Net Affinity on theirs. I'd say if you're going to put yourself in the position of publicly knocking sites, at least getyour own house in order first!!
