And now, a master class on how to decrease the amount of time visitors spend on one's site... [fanfare] Da ta dah! [/fanfare]

I give you:
The worst embedded sound on Teh Interwebs!

(This site breaks at least two more of DB's rules. You can earn additional points if you can spot how!)

Is there any control to make it stop?

Holy cats.

Yes. The 'back' button.

I found it completely by accident. I couldn't wait to share it with you guys.

And I thought the VOICES International (sorry!) site gave me a heart attack! This one really had me jumping out of my skin!

My monitors are cranked way up by default-- I'm usually surfing in-between working and I like to keep my monitors at the same level (loud) throughout a session.

It's a real "please make it stop" site.

I don't count the photo, since it seems to be a "group" and the guy is merely an indication.

I didn't count that either. I only dinged him for the mic pic, the font frenzy (thought he almost got that right-- if his headlines didn't fight with his button and logo typefaces, I'd forgive him) and... let's see, there had to be something else... oh yeah:

I HATE EMBEDDED SOUND!!!

Not to mention the fact that the heavy breathing makes it sound like the beginning of a porn site!!!
(not that I'd know anything about that!)
Yikes! YUK!

You're right, Liz. My whole little family was looking at me like "WTH are you doing over there?" I couldn't make. it. STOP!

And I've been meaning to get my ears pierced. But I didn't mean my eardrums.
