The Weblog Review

I can’t believe that cherubic angel face writes like a seasoned vet. LOL

Les has so much potential. His layout is nice, he segues from serious into entries that had me rolling in the floor laughing.

While parts of this weblog are 18+, the majority of it is just good fun to read.

The strip club visit was a bit much for me at 7 AM, and I’d have loved to see his afro, and I’m sure the girl he plans to marry (who is oblivious of the fact) will fall madly in love and say “yes”…I know I would!



For a weblog started the middle of this month, Lester has done an excellent job.

As soon as he has more archives, he can drop all the links, as any reader can find enough in his weblog to stay right where they are.

The initial view with the large Blogger banner at the top covering the site design was a turn off. Pay the $12 and have it removed. The stick figure theme

and the horse .gifs made me expect to be reading a teen category weblog. Since I didn’t find an “about me” type of entry, I went back to May of 2001 and found an entry about washing her car, so I know she’s at least 16.



The weblog seems to have no purpose other than to list entries that Nikki thinks are funny that she has gotten from other places and people or that cause her stress or anger, or pertain to her favorite sports team, or her horse riding or school activities. I found nothing that interested me, but I’m not the intended audience.



The design of the index page is pleasant, but the link pages appear to be from an old site with a different design for her entries titled “Soul Creations” and “My Dream Blog”. I’m not sure if “Soul Creations” are her creations of poetry, or someone else’s. There is no credit line, so I assume they are her writings. Some were very good, some mediocre, and some just teen angst. As for “My Dream Blog”, she doesn’t appear to dream often, as the last entry was over a month ago.



Her entry for “Song of the Moment” didn’t load, or my new Dell is out of whack. The “Mood Indicator” is unnecessary and detracts from the site, as does the animated horse.gif and the sports.gif.



This weblog mainly appeals to teens, but her poetry is worth a look, in my opinion. The site design could use some work to make the pages more cohesive and flow better.Punk Rock Princess

Nice site design! Of course, I love purple myself…

Very easy to navigate site of a person who loves music, basketball, weblogs and other things.

I enjoyed the “about” and the “me” sections. Clicking on one and expecting the normal yada about “who I am” and finding something different was a pleasant surprise. Cute kid!

He also has the weblog idea down pat…”I appreciate the seemingly endless amount of topics, and ideas out there. Sure my blog, at times, reads like a journal. I feel that I can write about what ever I like. If I want to write about my world-class microwave brownies(play nice and I’ll share the secrets), then I will. Or if I want to ramble on and on about my grandmother’s bread pudding, I’ll do that to.”



Now send me the brownie recipe!

Jaz Reveals All is very much a teen diary type of weblog. With that said, there are certain things that a prospective reader must expect, including the occasional poor grammar and composition, as well as the author’s tendency to ramble about topics and events only of interest to other teens. What one may not expect to find is broad-range humor and, yet, there is much of it at Jaz Reveals All. A recent entry discussing the author’s ambivalence to scoop dog poop is laugh-out-loud funny, as it takes adult readers back to their youth. Readers will encounter many other posts such as this one and find themselves reminiscing and nodding in agreement with the 16 year old author. Unfortunately, readers will have to sift through the more vague and truly mundane posts in order to find the better crafted entries. However, a weblog which recalls memories for the reader is not entirely without merit.



Jaz Reveals All could do with a bit of technical tweaking. The title graphic is extremely large and slow-loading and the overuse of the color pink can prove hard on the eyes. The overall blog design is simple and could possibly be enhanced by the use of more a compartmentalized layout. As teen weblogs do evolve rapidly, it is possible that Jaz Reveals All will see several modifications before the author settles on a specific layout and/or theme.



The writing at Jaz Reveals All, while entertaining, is not particularly strong. The author is prone to errors in standard composition and typographical errors abound. A bit of proofreading prior to publishing could easily solve most of these problems and is heartily recommended.



Overall, Jaz Reveals All is an entertaining and interesting teen weblog that will be primarily of interest to other teens and those looking to supplment their usual blog reading with a bit of youth.

An incredibly likable weblog, girlrepair.com offers visual stimulation in addition to well-crafted personal blog entries. The author is a talented writer and photographer from Canada who infuses his own personality into posts, as well as into the whole of the girlrepair website. From the first page onward, girlrepair.com can be both exciting to read and view.



The author’s weblog entries do tend to ramble and he does lean toward the abstract, often embracing metaphors throughout the whole of his posts. However, the author is never obtuse; he is pensive and seems to devote himself to even the smallest of details. This can make for excellent reading or pure torture, wholly dependent upon the readers’ predilections. Those who enjoy reading personal entries with a dreamy, almost ethereal quality about them will assuredly appreciate the offerings at girlrepair.com.



The photography sections of girlrepair.com are not to be missed and will, most likely, be enjoyed by all, including those not fond of the weblog itself. The photos and photo essays greatly enhance the blog and will give potential readers a better understanding of the author and his environment.



Girlrepair.com will not appeal to everyone, but those with an artistic bent and an eye for detail will enjoy and savor this site.
