Review 868

Meet The Orange Goddess herself, Anjali (to her teachers); Anj (to her classmates); Anju (to close friends and family). She’s the president of her school’s ‘CWG'(creative writing guild) and quite the writer and adorer of the color orange; she also enjoys Smashing Pumpkins and would most likely be Jack Skellington if she was going to be anyone on ‘Nightmare before Christmas.’ Now that the introduction is out of the way, I’ll get to the juicy stuff…



As you can see, I gave Anju (I’m officially a close friend) a 4.5 because that’s exactly what she deserved. Her writing flows well and is quite thought provoking. I also love the idea of having a Friday Five, where she answers 5, sometimes revealing, questions. Also, the fact that she is 16 makes me hopeful for our generation.



Why not a 5?

Well … her design is too simplistic and way too orange to be considered for a 5. My only suggestion to Anju is to think of a better design, for writing that deserves to be showcased in something expressive and appealing to the eye.



In conclusion…

I am in love with this girls writing and have already added her to my favorites. I suggest everyone do the same as ‘Orange Goddess’ is a keeper for reading purposes.orange goddess

Key word for this web site description:

“GOOD”



Argylez.com is a good site. The webmaster is a good guy, 28, who happens to log his life as it happens. His writing is fun and witty and I enjoyed reading his entries quite a bit.



More than his writing though, I absolutely loved his photography. He truly is talented with the lens and I will be back to view some more in the future.



If you need a good web log to read, Argylez.com is just that.



The design is good (surprised?), able to accommodate links and a web poll while still functioning as a web log.



In conclusion…

Argylez.com is the virtual home of Ryan Frasch, a regular good guy with plenty of time on his hands. His site is a good one and seems to be good to its visitors.



And now that I’ve completely worn out the word ‘good,’ you can now go explore the site that makes … good … use of this adjective, Argylez.com.

I don’t like giving a five, it suggests that something is perfect and I almost believe that to be impossible. However, for a personal web log, Princess, is truly perfect.



The design is easy on the eyes while making the site comfortable and easily navigated.



Lizzy, an 18 year old virgo, is the center of attention here and so she should be. She has a great way of describing the most simple events in life, i.e. – about 3 entries are devoted to looking for an apartment, and you won’t even notice. This girl could go on and on about anything and I would go right along with her.



In general, I like Lizzy, she’s a good person with lots to say. She seems to see herself as a geek who reads a lot. Regardless, I like that over-readin’ geek with a 147 IQ. She’s funny, she’s witty, and a generally fun person to read about. I’ve added her to my favorites and I look forward to reading about her world in the future.Princess

At first glance of the site design, I thought it might be some type of a goth-related site since it has that dark-colored theme going on. Boy, was I wrong!



The color scheme is very nice, though, and I really like the simple format it uses. All the pages are the same, and all is very well in design-land at this site.



I reviewed this site while at my “real job”, which was probably a bad thing, because I couldn’t stop reading. Kristen’s my age, and has a few of the same random things going on in her life that I do, so I was able to relate to her weblog VERY easily.



Kristen calls her weblog entries “episodes”, which is just what each entry is – an episode in the life of Kristen, and normally a somewhat entertaining one at that.



I’m adding this site to my personal list of favorite, and would highly suggest it to anyone else.Sasha Fantastica

Review 2116

There’s a staff of 10 writers that are listed as writers to this weblog, and they all do their fair share of posting. I was prepared for mass confusion. However, I was pleasantly surprised.

The latest entry was the story of one of the weblog’s authors taking their first Geocaching Expedition. Albeit they were under the influence of drugs while taking this little journey, this particular author does an entertaining job of giving us a humorous, detailed description of the Expedition. And further into the archives, there’s a long post that’s a rant on current events. It’s probably the most opinionated post I found here, but the opinions of this particular author are very well backed up and the writing style of such topics is done in an extremely clear manner.

All the different authors have their own unique way of posting – some will post narratives, others will bounce back and forth between posting about their social life and national current events, and there were some one word posts that I couldn’t make heads or tails of. In all, this group weblog does a good job of not turning the posts into a conversation going back and forth between all the contributors and gears itself more towards entertaining the masses that do visit the site.

The design of the site is something I liked. It wasn’t anything complex at all. Each author has a specific icon that’s posted by the title of their post, and the posts are offset in boxes that are a different color from the background. It’s a sharp looking site.

I wanted to know more about these authors. I know part of the fun in a weblog like this where nearly everyone uses nicknames is being anonymous, but I couldn’t help but want to know more about this group of writers.

There were times when I thought I need to smoke something illegal to get the full concept and humor of this weblog. Not being under the influence of any type of hallucinogenic drug while viewing it confused me at times, but for the most part I was able to get a good idea of what these kids were writing about. It’s a fun, college-aged weblog that’s worth a visit just to get to know this gang of students.
