I wans’t really sure which category this fell under so I put it under personal (?) Also I wasn’t 100% sure fo its purpose until I read the “About” section.



The layout was particularly nice and uncluttered, everything had its place, this was particularly good to see as more and more blogs are becoming increasingly cluttered which draws attention aways from the blog itself.



I found some of the entries interesting and some amusing, such as the entry entitled “finally”.

I felt it appealed to all age groups, its content wasn’t up to much but the blog kept me amused.



Overall a decent site, with a very nice layout and blog.eWyle

Who ever said web sites have to be in English? I looked at this site and despite the fact that I don’t speak Dutch, I was pretty impressed by the layout. It’s simple yet elegant, and easy to navigate even if you don’t speak the language. You can probably guess what the links on the left lead to. It’s a sad thing that I can’t review the site based on content because of certain language barriers.



All in all, this site deserves the 4.5 I gave it. Idealy a site should be in English since you are submitting to a non-dutch speaking web site. The layout has definatly made up for it.BoogBlog

The best thing that Xombie had

going for it was the satirical

overtones with which it was made.

The graphics were intentionally

childlike, looking as if they had been

scribbled in Windows Paint. It

seemed as if the author recognized

the fact that he sucked at making

graphics, and took it to the extreme

by making extra-sucky graphics. But

it worked, and it was original at the

very least.



The weblog was not as interesting

as one might have hoped, though

there were some humorous remarks

here and there. “Inspiration hit me in

the form of some loose drywall…”

sticks out in my memory.



I had to scroll way to the bottom of

the main page to find the navigation

links for the rest of the site. I don’t

know if it was me or geocities, but I

had to try several times to load the

other pages. The best offering I

could find was a short story under

the “Art” section, which was a

heartfelt tale about making dinner for

a girl.



I wasn’t very interested in the author’s

favorite band list or seeing more than

two of his pictures, and I was

confused by the “Extra” page, which

contained a myriad of subjects that

might be best broken up into

separate pages.Xombie

The image used is interesting to say the least, it leads the eye nicely down to the entries and the theme is carried throughout the entries.

However when I tried clicking the link “About” I was shown a “Page can not be found” screen, which disheartened me slightly.

The entries are funny, and yet peculiar at the same time, and usually each conversation is carried on with the rest of the group so it’s worthwhile to read preceding entries before continuing to read later entries.

Overall a very effective group blog with members posting daily.

strangers and a web log

After checking out this site, I swear I’m gonna have to make a run to the store to make these Midnight Brownies that the author kept talking about. In just a few posts, she spoke about BBQ chicken, M&Ms and brownies.



Okay, enough about the food, I’m supposed to reviewing the log …



A post discussing … well the chickens, I started to laugh because she gives those people who work at any fast food restaurant who specialize in chicken how to make a mockery of the food you have to work with. All you need is a little roasted chicken, a little imagination and an audience and you got a great puppet show!! Give some quality entertainment for those waiting for their orders. Or as she likes to call it: BBQ Chicken Porn. Makes you want to say, “Hey kids, let’s go down and get some dinner and watch some chicken porn!”



A definite plus about reading her site is Miss Shauny is her writing. She has a degree in journalism and I don’t think I’ve come across a site who tells a story that will use actual line breaks when two people are speaking. Someone that applies those things you learned in school.



Elsewhere on her site, she has a “snaps” section of photos from concerts, vacations and just random shots of other moments; she also did a bit of photojournalism. I personally liked the 50’s style of pics she has on the different sections of her site like the very “posed” shot of probably a tv housewife on the phone in her bio area of the site.



You must see check out the site; at least go to see the drawing of the “Work Food Chain” and where she’s located at … I think it’s somewhere near that algae of some sort …

what’s new pussycat?
