Month: January 1970

I enjoy this webpage. My first impression was how much I was going to crucify the layout in my review but then I started working my way through the entries and by the bottom of the page I was really fond of the page. The links are great and the blogs aren’t boring. Short and to the point. The design and the posts make the page welcoming, yet not overpowering.



It also links to her personal site, which is nicely done, and other webpages that are nicely done too. This site has a nice spot in my favorites list.

Upon first visiting this site I was struck by its blandness. There was an image, of a walrus or some other disgusting animal off in a corner, and just dark gray background with text in different shades of gray.



Not offset by its ugly appearance I went through the content and that’s when I became convinced that this person needed to get of crack or whatever he was smoking. This site features a “diary” of some poetry that is very bad and sound absolutely horrid. I question if this is genuine or if the guy wanted it to sound provocative by mimic actual poetry.



After that there is a poetry section of the same bad writing. After getting through those sections I came upon something different. It’s called “word art” – which is basically horribly written poetry on ugly cheaply made pictures. Another medium in which to disgust me. The last section includes a bunch or semi daily sentences which mimic bad poetry again. My general impression of the site is it is made by some one whom desperately trying to be poetic but fails horribly.

In my short time here, this is one of the finest sites I’ve been too yet. The more I read of her writing, the more I realized that the design matches her personality perfectly.



The log is excellent. That’s the easiest way to describe it. From the “About Me” section to her description of her dating techniques, it’s packed with entertainment. Although at rare moments the posts are infrequent, the posts that are there are most of the time highly entertaining. The author is a British gal who discusses everything from her results from some web tests to her travels with her brother to look at castles.



I absolutely loved the design of this site. The logo at the top reminds me of the old “Real World show, I don’t know why, it just does. Although some reviewers may not like the fact that the Archive, About, and Email links are hidden behind mouseover code in the boxes in the logo, I personally think it’s a very unique idea. There’s links on either side of the log, other logs on the left, and different websites on the right.



Overall, this is an excellent read, and I’ll definitely be adding it to my bookmarks, and I’d suggest that you do to.

Self-deprecating humor at it’s finest, Ugly Fat Kid is a weblog/comedy routine which should not be missed. Readers who enjoy the little oddities of life will assuredly enjoy reading the adventures of a guy who purports to staple cheese wedges together for no apparent reason.



Solidly written — the Ugly Fat Kid’s grammar and composition is near flawless — and completely engaging, entries here vary in length and topic. The author’s style of writing is such that the reader becomes engrossed in the author’s escapades and may begin to wonder if there is any truth to these adventures. Some recent explorations include developing a mechanical theory of facial tissue dispensing, an attempt to flush a bowling ball down a toilet, and determining the merits of Styrofoam mattresses. Bizarre, indeed; terribly amusing, nonetheless.



The layout of Ugly Fat Kid is a sliced melange of brown and black with photo graphics (presumably of the author), and the layout renders equally well in MSIE and NS 6.1. Internal links are kept to a side menu area with a graphical interface and links lead to other equally interesting facets of the author’s site. Archives are not complete; those currently available date only from November 2001 to present. Readers who become hooked on the Ugly Fat Kid’s writing will certainly wish to read more, perhaps as much as possible, of the author’s writings. It is recommended that Ugly Fat Kid’s author archive all of his entries, as many will want to read them.



Ugly Fat Kid is a gem of a weblog which shouldn’t be missed by blog readers. Here, one can obtain a daily dose of eccentricity which will assuredly provoke a chuckle and sustain a smile.

A highly literate Blog*Spot weblog, The Den of Ubiquity is a fast-paced, somewhat interesting personal blog which is respectable in both content and style.



Author Aaron Humphrey, a 30 year old Canadian techie, has much to offer in his weblog, including personal bits and pieces, as well as an amusing and analytical countdown of his 750 favorite songs. Entries vary in length and the writing here is solid. Entries are literate and well-composed, will little to no grammatical or spelling errors. Aaron’s style of writing is both friendly and inviting, making him seem very much like the guy next door.



The layout of Den of Ubiquity is composed of a standard Blogger template and this weblog views equally well in MSIE and NS 6.1. Entries are archived and all archives are accessible. Links are minimal and most are contained to the side menu area. Aaron’s other Den of Ubiquity, his personal website, is well worth a look and may prove more enjoyable than the actual weblog.



While The Den of Ubiquity is certainly a solid weblog, readers may tend to feel that something is lacking. There is a certain je ne sais quoi which simply isn’t present in The Den of Ubiquity and this reviewer is pressed for viable recommendations. Nevertheless, The Den of Ubiquity does offer quality content and writing and should hold an appeal for mature 20 and 30-somethings.
