Paddy Johnson over at Art Fag City just came out with her annual Best and Worst of the Web lists. The Best list included a lot of the stuff you might expect, like that Snoop Dogg video, as well as some things you might not know about, like this amazingly weird mating ritual that might be slightly NSFW if you work in a convent, say, or maybe a daycare.

Her worst list, on the other hand, is comprised mostly of easy (though deserving) targets like the Whitney and Saatchi websites. So it doesn’t come as any great surprise that RISD made #3 on the list. Because that site is so very awful in so many different ways. Aside from the fact that there’s a quote from the creator of Family Guy on the front page (tacky!), the navigation is counterintuitive and also scrolls by horizontally kind of quickly for no reason whatsoever. One commenter compared the site to a duck gallery, but that’s just the front page. It gets worse once you actually click on anything. And God forbid you might actually want to find an event to go to.
