Youlicit/backtype : word/html-noise ratio is very low
1 point by krishna2 on Aug 27, 2008 | hide | past | favorite
youlicit.com - about 26 readable english words on the site and about 10KB of html with a ton of javascript. [side note - typing an invalid email address doesn't do anything in spite of all the javascript]

backtype.com - ONE SINGLE word on the page...but they are very curious to know how many people visited that page...and all the javascript/css goodness.

hint : Look at qht.co site for anyone looking to minimize.

hint2 : save bandwidth and some money.
