Lewies Blogs opens in one of several templates. The one I saw was called “Friendly,” and it was just that. The template is very cluttered. I like friendly, but cluttered? Not so much. I mean, he has one of those blogs that has just about everything you can think of on it. He has translations of his site into 8 different languages, RSS feeds, links, ads, webrings, sourcecodes he’s written, the list goes on and on. And I wish it didn’t.
Lewie is 29, a programmer, married and from Virginia. He takes a photo of himself every day for his blog entries. It was a nice touch. Lewie’s writing is very matter-of-fact and to the point. More often than not, his posts are short but sometimes he tells a good story about his past, such as Moon Halo.
Because Lewie is a programmer, I can understand his need to tinker with and add things to his blog. He needs to suppress that need. There is enough stuff on your blog already, Lewie. Stick to the writing and letting your readers know more about you without worrying about the bells and whistles.Lewies Blogs
