Is MySpace the worst site on the internet, or is it actually the best? Some casual users of it probably think it’s the worst and millions of teenagers would probably argue that it’s the best thing that’s ever happened to the internet….or maybe to the world. Well, PC World came out with a list of the 25 worst sites ever, and MySpace is #1 on their list. Here are their top 5:

5. AllAdvantage
4. CD Universe
3. Cartoonnetwok.com
2. CyberRebate
1. MySpace.com

MySpace came in at #1 based mostly on usability issues. Anyone that has used it knows of its poor design, which includes frequent error pages, cluttered personal profile pages, security issues and slow loading times at peak hours. Of course, none of this means anything to the (supposed) 90 million people who use the site. Part of the reason that people like MySpace is because they can personalize their pages, which ironically is one of the reasons why the site is often difficult to navigate through. Pages choked with pictures, sounds and videos are part of what slows MySpace down and the cause of a lot of errors.

Other than MySpace, most of those names probably aren’t too recognizable. CyberRebate is on the list not because they had a bad site, but because they had a bad business. They offered 100% rebates on products, as long as you purchased them at 10x the regular price and waited months for your rebate. There are some other interesting tales of long-forgotten companies like the immortal Pets.com.

If anyone wants to add their worst site, feel free to leave a comment (as long as it isn’t ours, which of course makes every Top 10 Greatest Web Sites Ever Created in History list).
