10 things I hate about your site

While a pretty sound blog, Let’s All Go to the Movies!!!! needs some help with categories and tags, among other things.

While pouring through the posts and pages of the next blog up for review, I got sidetracked and ended up starting my own “pay-per-post” blog (look for another shameless self-promotion post). Armed with additional knowledge of the limitations placed on the blogger, I understand that a few of the things on the list below are out of the blogger’s control. While that may not be the blogger’s problem, there are still some things I hate about the blog.

Personally, I find the design of this blog to be a little under whelming. Considering the topics and content, however, understated is probably the way to go. Of course, there’s always something that can be improved upon.

10 8 things I hate about your site:

1. The web is a visual medium—give me something to look at!
2. Where was I? I keep losing my place.
3. Google ads. Are they a gift from above or are they sent from Hell?
4. Tags: why are they there?
5. Your tags are invading my space.
6. So much to read, so little real estate.
7. What’s important: proper use of the <strong> tag.
8. Typo…

I think I’m reviewing myself into a corner. What started out as an endeavor to review web sites (but not excluding blogs), has taken a sudden turn to the blog side. This creates a bit of a conundrum for me since most blogs rely on pre-made templates.

I believe Whathuh Studios is my first request from an Entrecard member. I think the time I’m spending there might be panning out.

Whathuh Studios Rant

10 8 things I hate about your site:

1. PayPerPost blog, or Whathuh Studios Rant blog?
2. “We make web design personal” doesn’t
   appear to be a very accurate tag line
   for this blog.
3. The Digg widget–its placement just bugs me.
4. Visit Flordia, the 51st state.
5. Whathuh heck is that icon?
6. Your sidebar widgets icons are magically disappearing.
7. Translation: worth it, or pretty space-filler?
8. Tag cloud vs. topics.
