- inactive, on 10/12/2007, -0/+27i think it's funny that right now these state sites are probably getting more hits than they ever have... they're going to expect a lot of tourists this year...

Don't try and cover up your ignorance...we've caught you. - cybermort, on 10/12/2007, -1/+23how come idaho's website isn't shape like a potato
- wtweber, on 10/12/2007, -5/+26Indiana is only beautiful if you like to see corn, corn, corn, corn, corn, corn, soybeans, corn, corn, corn, corn, corn, corn, and a little more corn.

I can tell that you are new.
Welcome aboard. - Silvermink, on 10/12/2007, -0/+14It is, if you view it on a potato-shaped monitor.

Let it load in your background, it will take a fortnight to load. - Thezeppelin62, on 10/12/2007, -0/+9michigan and illinois are good. hooray for Illinois.
- bertram, on 10/12/2007, -2/+10no.
- jaycliche, on 10/12/2007, -1/+9"@jaycliche: You've never actually BEEN to Indiana, have you? I'm guessing not. Indiana is a beautiful state. Frankly, it's not much different from Illinois. (And I've lived in both states, so yes, I know what I'm talking about!)"
Yes, I have been to both. I used to live in Wisconsin. I know I was being generalizing...mostly I meant Gary, Indiana. NJ is not so bad either. It was a joke...not about TX though. - colifis, on 10/12/2007, -0/+7Dugg by a North Dakota native just to prove we DO exist. We even have our own license plates too.
- emanggid, on 10/12/2007, -0/+7Hooray Arkansas! At the top of the lower heap! *sigh*
- jaycliche, on 10/12/2007, -10/+17Indiana is to Illinois as New Jersey is to New York, and Texas is to the US.
- bwjacket, on 10/12/2007, -2/+9Jeb forgot to turn on the Internet tubes in Rhode Island.
- jaycliche, on 10/12/2007, -0/+7"Maryland is hilarious:
"Why is there a big "Stop Sex Offenders" link at the top of the page?"
Remember, Maryland is right next to DC. They are trying to appeal to their audience. - jaycliche, on 10/12/2007, -5/+11Canada is still a US territory.
- smileycat, on 10/12/2007, -1/+7Can anyone actually get the Rhode Island site to load (http://www.visitrhodeisland.com/) or is it just me?
- inactive, on 10/12/2007, -0/+6Maryland is hilarious:
"Why is there a big "Stop Sex Offenders" link at the top of the page? This is a tourism site remember — what kind of message is that going to send? And how about using a grid to layout your page?" - jaycliche, on 10/12/2007, -11/+17America, Canada's smelly underpants.
- digguerre, on 10/12/2007, -0/+6@cmyke
lol if the Arctic is America's head hair then does that make South America the hair...down there?
this gives new meaning to the term "Brazilian wax" - DeepDoo, on 10/12/2007, -2/+7I was actually looking for England but could not find it.
- jaycliche, on 10/12/2007, -0/+5"The more you hate us, the more we love ourselves! "
That's obvious...we all get Hollywood too. - Ellsass, on 11/05/2008, -5/+10I wouldn't visit Maryland just because of their hideous flag:
http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Image:Flag_of_Maryland.svg - danobrien23, on 10/12/2007, -0/+5no one can get RI site's to work, I live in Rhode Island but i convinced myself that I just tripped over Massachusetts and landed in a sub-section of MA
- jcrewyayo, on 10/12/2007, -2/+7california wins again... just like in the real life
- rstarr, on 10/12/2007, -0/+4The Maine tag line is actually pretty perfect for the state.
You're just using the wrong inflection. It's a state of very region specific culture. There's a lot of things that must be Maine because no other state would take it. They shortened it from, "Oh THAT thing? Yeah, it must be Maine."
Examples: Flannel, Red Hot Dogs (color, not taste), Italian sandwiches (trust me on this one, you probably don't have em like Maine), the word "A-yuh," Moxie, etc...
If you were from here...you'd get it. - DreadPirateWes, on 10/12/2007, -0/+4I'm in Idaho...Of course half the population is in Boise...the only civilized place in the state. The rest is an estimate of the nomadic tribes of tent-people roving about the deserts and forests. It's hard to accurately count them since they are crafty and difficult to tag.
- jordan314, on 10/12/2007, -0/+4Would I visit any US state based on their web site?
- truax, on 10/12/2007, -0/+4ahh! the Smug!
take cover! - jaycliche, on 10/12/2007, -0/+3" i always imagined it was like those penguin movies with ice and snow everywhere"
That's just hollywood. It's a beach resort now thanks to texans using so much hairspray. - jason7655, on 10/12/2007, -0/+3@tocksin
Mississippi isn't as backwards as you seem to believe.
http://www.visitmississippi.org/
better than some of the other sites on there but could still be improved. - Lumiras, on 10/12/2007, -0/+3I think most of the sites are pretty poorly done, but it looks like there may be some good web designers working on Tennessee and South Dakota's pages
- jaycliche, on 10/12/2007, -2/+5How come the US website isn't shaped like a cowboy boot?
- Lokix, on 10/12/2007, -2/+5ahahahaha the Indiana one is awful.
- aristan, on 10/12/2007, -0/+3The main Tennessee site is nice, but their seasonal sites are even better... The summer & fall subsites are just about breath taking: http://summer.tnvacation.com/ & http://fall.tnvacation.com/
The winter site is nice as well, spring...well, I hope they redo that one in the next month or so. - quakeIII, on 10/12/2007, -0/+2how come your comment made me read it to myself in a crazy gangsta-southwestern accent?
- inactive, on 10/12/2007, -0/+2@Bear Owned
(not sure I got that right.. I'm pretty drunk)
i think you are on the way to hip-hop stardom. maybe start with a PSA. - xeomage, on 10/12/2007, -3/+5See, I heard Idaho was the fake state. The whole potato thing is just a part of the plan to mislead us.
Yeah, here's a link:
http://kuoi.asui.uidaho.edu/idaho_does_not_exist.html - redlantern64, on 10/12/2007, -0/+2What a fair and accurate listing of state tourism site. :-)
(Disclaimer: My company developed the Kentucky Tourism site, and I built it myself...so I'm biased. ) - Ductapemaster, on 10/12/2007, -0/+2Now I'm all for the rainforests being cut down!
