Wow - <a href="http://www.un.org/">the <abbr title="United Nations">UN</abbr>'s website</a> is godawful! In fact as godawfulness goes, it's Zeusawful - the king of the godawfuls.
</p>
<p>
It's not accessible via <a href="http://un.org/">the “www”less version of its address</a>; its <a href="http://www.un.org/aboutun/charter/index.html">charter</a> uses frames; an animated <acronym title="Godawful Image Format">GIF</acronym> flag; unantialiased cursive text in an un<code>alt</code>ed image; and “practice” as a verb.
</p>
<p>
And this is the <em>UN</em> - the most influential body that exists. Are they really this inept?
