There are a few companies and Web sites that give me the warm fuzzies. Instead of drowning everything they say in text that's engineered to project authority and slickness, sites like Flickr, A List Apart and PhotoJojo have copy that's so simple, clear and effortlessly fun that they almost have their own personalities.
But nothing beats the freaks at CD Baby:
Gawd, I love those guys.

But nothing beats the freaks at CD Baby:
Your CD has been gently taken from our CD Baby shelves with sterilized contamination-free gloves and placed onto a satin pillow.
A team of 50 employees inspected your CD and polished it to make sure it was in the best possible condition before mailing.
Our packing specialist from Japan lit a candle and a hush fell over the crowd as he put your CD into the finest gold-lined box that money can buy.
We all had a wonderful celebration afterwards and the whole party marched down the street to the post office where the entire town of Portland waved "Bon Voyage!" to your package, on its way to you, in our private CD Baby jet on this day, Thursday, December 6th.
I hope you had a wonderful time shopping at CD Baby. We sure did. Your picture is on our wall as "Customer of the Year." We're all exhausted but can't wait for you to come back to CDBABY.COM!!
Thank you, thank you, thank you!
Sigh...
Gawd, I love those guys.
