Urghhh is it just me or do you find it really ugly to look at? I hate the way the spacing between words just looks so inconsistent across each line on a page that has justified text.

Let's not forget the whole 'river' problem that seems to flow through fully justified paragraphs. I really can't get my head around the amount of nice looking websites that use it!? Or is it just me?

It's not just you, I don't care for it either. If you have enough words on each line, it's not so bad, but when there are fewer words per line, then the spacing looks awful.

I don't like it either. It works better in print where you have more control over how the text will fill the line. I think fully justified text can be used to good effect, but not so much when it comes to paragraph after paragraph of content.
