The Best ‘Best of 2007’ Lists of 2007 List

The oldest trick in journalism is padding late December issues with plenty of "Best of the Year" lists. But which of these lists were the best this year? Exurban League presents...

THE BEST 'BEST OF 2007' LISTS OF 2007 LIST!

10. Yale Book of Quotations' Most Memorable Quotes of 2007. In first place is the crowd-disbursing, "Don't tase me, bro!"

9. Spike TV's Top 10 Best Trailers of 2007. Of course, 300 was included.

8. Wired magazine's Top 10 Startups Worth Watching in 2008. However, they seem to have left one out.

7. Metacritic's Most Critically-Acclaimed Albums of 2007. I only have nine of the 30, so I better get cracking.

6. Fineman PR's Top 10 Public Relations Blunders of 2007. What do Ellen Degeneres and Rosie O'Donnell have in common? (No, not that.)

5. BusinessWeek's Best Product Design Of 2007. I'll have one of each, please.

4. The Consumerist's 12 Least Satisfying Cars of 2007. Why am I not surprised that they're all American?

3. Interbrand's annual Best Global Brands for 2007. Microsoft up three percent, Apple up 21 percent. Warning to Bill Gates: objects in mirror are closer than they appear.

2. Time magazine's Top 10 Scientific Discoveries. Although the mystery of Carson Daly's career is yet to be solved.

And, the winner is...

1. Exurban League's Best ‘Best of 2007’ Lists of 2007 List. Natch.

Why do I get the feeling our list will win every year?
