Top 11 Lamest Blogs

And the winner is: "Check Out".

"Check Out" is promoted as being the place for "the latest in gadgets, green, gaming, and more." The "more," it would seem, constitutes a wealth of thinly disguised Wal-Mart commercials, which you'll find sprinkled throughout almost every entry.

"No gimmicks or rebates, just a great Blu-ray player for under $200 everyday!!!!" the entry proclaims.

Reality check on aisle two, please.
