Software, SaaS & Tech Products Reputation: Basecamp (Writeboard) (writeboard.com)
Writeboard.com is an honest digital tombstone that suffers from ‘Metadata Haunting,’ where legacy marketing clichés for the parent company (Basecamp) contradict the dead status of the sub-page.

It is a rare example of a site that is low on BS precisely because it has stopped trying to sell anything.

“The score of 79 is driven primarily by the Commodity Fingerprint and Semantic Drift pillars, resulting from the use of generic Basecamp cliches in the metadata. The Information Density score remained low because the body text is surprisingly specific and dated. The lack of verified proof links for the 'millions' of users claimed in the meta-tags prevented a lower score.”
