Sadly, this was mostly link bait. The first couple are certainly the biggest flops that everyone already knows about. Then the last 10 or so the author is reaching. Kiko for instance. Didn't they only raise a hundred grand or so and sell themselves on eBay for 250k? Maybe not a big success, but I wouldn't put it in the same grouping with these other startups.

The funny thing is, that the first 10 or so I could have sworn I've seen in another list elsewhere, almost word for word ... I'll have to try and dig it up.
Definitely linkbait if ever I saw it.
