Prior to all the Social Networking sites like Twitter and Facebook, Blogs were the most explosive phenomena on the planet! Blogs were the original innovation for people to express themselves and invite participation by others. Politics, personals, diaries, merchants, products, real estate services (yes!) and much more. Blogs are probably more relevant today than ever before. Blogs are free expression. Blogs have personality. Blogs make statements. Blogs entertain. Blogs and social media are symbiotic. Blogs have style!
In search of the ultimate blog style...
Check out these samples:
A List Apart: clean, organized and refreshing, teaches the art of style
Style can be subjectively measured in many ways; from the first visual impression to the depth of content. I didn't care for IMUS at first but after staying tuned for more than a minute, he grew on me. Those mentioned above are our Favorites for reasons of style; albeit visual and/or cerebral.
I prefer the more subtle, organized, clean style and clear organized thought. I am also visual. Give me pictures and diagrams.
Our style is evolving. Ultimately it may never be static. I think that is a good thing. We would gladly entertain your comments, suggestions and/or criticisms.]]>

link to this article this morning on the TypePad site:
Google's new look? The search giant is testing a revamped results page ... The good news, should the new look utterly disgust you, is that so far
Google hasn't even mentioned the new look (and had not responded to our
inquires when this story was published) let alone taken any steps
toward making it official. Given Google's track record of beta testing,
we suspect the redesign will be thoroughly and publicly tested before
it goes live, if in fact it ever does.
