Review 2708

Will’s Delirium is the on-line journal (thoughts, rants and other posts of good, accurate writing) of someone named Will. We cannot really know anything other than this because there is no information on the author. I could find no “about” links on his site and only by reading the archives (which date back to 2001), did I manage to find out that Will may be a teenager or a man in his early twenties. Whatever the case, he studies (as he usually refers to “homework” in his posts), other than this, I simply cannot say.

The template is black with a table in the middle; you can scroll to the posts that show up on his main page. To the left of the table, there’s a photo of Will (maybe retouched with one of Adobe Photoshop’s filters). If you scroll down to the end of the post section, you’ll find the sole link on Will’s page is to his archives. The template could use a little more work, it’s too middle-oriented.

Will’s writing is in-depth. He constantly asks questions about himself and you get the feeling he’s still trying to discover who he is or can be. The posts are honest and many of them deal with what goes on inside his head. They make for good reading if you enjoy discovering a person’s soul, if you enjoy “lighter” blogs or blogs of a more amusing nature, then this is one blog you wouldn’t want to visit.

Personally, I enjoy this type of writing. I like reading blogs where people pose questions and try to find answers. It makes the reader feel like he or she is part of the author’s growth process.

I give this blog a 3.5 because of the lack of information on the author and the lack of links. I think it detracts from the blog, making it look stale. Most blog readers are a curious bunch, and most crave extra information. Even if you wish to remain anonymous, there are ways to make your blog more appealing. Were it not for this, I would have rated it higher.
