Myspace - the worst major website

Man I really dont blog enough on here, i need to find a consistent schedule and do it at least once a week. Even though i dont think anyone actually reads my blog. How is this site not 100 times more popular than MySpace? Myspace is by far the worst designed website that is in the mainstream. Easily the worst in the top 10 websites on the net.

Here are the top 10 websites in the U.S.

1.Yahoo!

2.Google

3. Myspace
4. Microsoft Network (MSN)

5. EBay

6. YouTube

7.WikiPedia

8. Thefacebook

9.Craigslist.org

10. Amazon.com

Of those Myspace looks the worst. Craigslist doesnt look amazing but its simplicity is nice and there arent a ton of broken links. Anyone else have any ideas on bad major websites? I know OregonLive.com is pretty awful too
