Phrazr is a website which allows users to summarise their life and have it eternally hosted on their website. 1 sentence worth of hosting for the sum of $5! Wow! That’s almost as good a bargain as paying $1 for a pixel on a massive virtual billboard.

The site is a clever idea, although they are really exaggerating it (saying the quote will be preserved for eternity and that it guarantees immortality etc.). Also, I doubt anyone would actually pay $5 to have their quote preserved (but apparently 3 people have).

When I first read about the service I thought it was a free service, but when i read you must pay $5 I was simply… amazed. Any idiot can have their quote preserved for a long time (preserving it, of course, for eternity is an impossibility) by posting it on a site such as their Wikipedian userpage or free hosting from a host such as Geocities.

The site doesn’t even have that good graphics. It uses a dark blue colour scheme and Flash (not AJAX).
