Low-tech, yes, but it works.

Thanks.

I wonder why that is...

I don't think any of the Tavern forums are searchable (maybe the Gameroom, not sure). They are the largest forums, and searches through them are detrimental to the performance of the board as a whole. At least that's what Tosa said a few years ago.

The frontroom is searchable.

Or not)

And its a special thank you from me to Cameron McKenna, as I now realise that, however bad my own awaydays seem to be, they are NOTHING compared to how awful they could be. Though I'd quite like to be let rip writing a three minute death metal number about how Lord Justice Jacob really sucks.

Good stuff . CMS is best! (Woah-hoh!) Better than the rest! (Whoah-hoh!)

There's only grumbling, so you can understand it anyway.

Also, this is NOT A JOKE.

I'd still like this Frontroomed.

Recent additions to my hall of shame:

Phillips Was My First Love

Honeywell Quest Is Quality [dead link] (maybe the worst-performed one so far)

Henkel—We Together

Miami Herald.

The Apple theme song.

Because we needed proof that both Apple and Microsoft suck.

As amusing as this one is, I don't think it's genuine. (As in, The Miami Herald didn't have it produced or deploy it as a value-added fungible asset-class actualization item.)

my ears are bleeding!

somewhere Lenin is laughing.

Well, it's from a former Herald employee...so it might not be genuine, but it's close.

SGI has a lovely dream -- two CPUs. [dead link]

Novell has a kinda Sheryl Crow thing going on.

I have no idea who Asera is, but they're here to stay. [dead link] And, um, they rock or something.

**Lemur** · 10-25-2011, 17:23

Drupa is back with a more country vibe. [dead link]

Asera everywhere! [dead link]

And lastly, there's not a web site that offers to create corporate anthems on demand. ABOUT DAMN TIME! I think maybe we should take up a collection to have them compose something stirring for the Org ...
