Holy wow, that is one of the most obnoxious sites I've ever seen (and like others, I felt the same about the ad on the blog).

Leveraging our exclusive "Exit-Intent" technology, Bounce Exchange™ is leading the paradigm shift in automated customer acquisition.

I think they actually used one of those parody startup-speak generators.

Holy crap. That is obnoxious.

Frankly, can't believe they managed to patent detecting and responding when the pointer drifts to the top of a web page.

Well, joke's on them. My tabs are off to the side, and I use keyboard to close the window anyway ;)

Next thing you know, they'll start intercepting Command-W's.
