Smart Pixels

November 20th, 2008

Smart Pixels was a blog that struck me as utterly chaotic when I first hit it.  The header really threw me off, as it is so non traditional.  Also, there appears to be an empty pixel box at the top of the sidebar, could it be related to the domain name?  Otherwise, this blog is a great resource for those who are heavily into web design.  It has a pretty clean theme.  However, the one thing that bugs me rather badly is the default 125×125 blocks.  For a blog about web design, they seem awfully generic.  Otherwise, great blog and I think that it is a great resource for those who need help with Web Design.

Live Serv

November 19th, 2008

Live Serv is a blog that hit my eyes and made me say, “WOW!”.  It has vibrant lime green and soothing rustic pink colors that make your eyes feel like they are given a taste of flavor and then are able to cool down.  The blog itself is about web hosting and tells nearly everything you need to know about it.  The theme and layout are great for readers!  I really do not have all that many complaints about this one folks.  Check it out for yourself to find a great blog about web hosting/web related stuff!

Choose and Watch TV

November 15th, 2008

Well, if you don’t know you can actually watch T.V. online now.  Some of it is legal to watch, some of it is in a gray area.  However, Choose and Watch TV lists some of the best sites online that you can watch TV.  They have sites where you can watch movies, documentaries and even episodes of your favorite dramas.  They do a complete review of each site, which is nice for those people who don’t want to have to deal with the sites that do not work.  Also, Choose and Watch TV has a slick design that is easily readable and well monitized.  If you are looking for something good on TV tonight, don’t bother!  Just go to Choose and Watch TV.

Real American Gangster

November 14th, 2008

What says daring and bold more than Real American Gangster?  Real American Gangster is supposedly written by a real American gangster who is now retired.  It’s actually more of a fictional blog in my opinion, because while it might be true, I doubt that it really is.  Still, it has a great story behind it!  Who wouldn’t like the story of a family of gangsters?  I think the best part is that there are so many different aspects to the persona behind the blog.  The violence is pretty bad t hough, so just watch out for that.  Otherwise, if you enjoy reading about guns, drugs and beatings, which every guy does, read Real American Gangster, you might just enjoy it.

Optical Illusions

November 14th, 2008

Everyone loves optical illusions. They are what makes our minds so fasincated by sometimes the simplest of tricks. This Optical Illusions blog is one of the most interesting out there. It has 3D chalk drawings and optical illusions that even little kids will understand. I am rather annoyned at the fact that the adSense ads are actually within the first post, but the post make up for it completely. There are pages and pages of optical illusions. If you are at all interested in them, I urge you to check them out for some of the best things you may have ever seen. Enjoy this optical illusions blog.

Civil Engineering

November 14th, 2008

This blog is a step different from most other blogs.  It has one default home page rather than having a home page where posts are shown.  This makes the blog seem more lively to me.  There are a ton of comments on the homepage.  Also, I like the fact that there is both a left and a right sidebar.  The sidebars are both orderly and useful to find the information that visitors might be looking for on the site.  The only real thing I can see that the blog author could improve on is the header.  It looks somewhat pixelated and could use a makeover but other than that Civil Engineering is a great blog!

Credit Card Block

November 14th, 2008

Credit Cards are something that most people need these days.  I like the fact that there is a blog that talks about them in depth.  Many people get into having a credit card and do not understand all the fees and charges as well as perks that there may be behind it.  This blog author does a good job at pointing all of those out and more.  Also, I think that the blog is extremely well monitized with adSense units splashed all over the page.  While the theme has been around for a while, I do not believe that it is the best fit for a credit card related blog.  That I would probably change to something more white, and sterile.  However, if you are looking for good credit card information check out Credit Card Block.

OHMG

November 14th, 2008

I am not quite sure what this blog is about yet…even after looking through it for a few minutes.  However, the pictures of the beautiful looking women did keep my eyes glued to the screen.  I did find a problem with this blog in the fact that it violates Google’s Terms of Service.  You are not allowed to have more than three ad unit’s on one page, he has FIVE on his front page.  Even if Google has changed their Terms, this is WAY too many ads.  I think once the author has removed some of the ads and gotten some more pictures of beautiful girls he is well on his way to making a great blog.  Check out OHMG!

Fuel Economy Help

November 14th, 2008

Well, with the price of gasoline finally going down we can all breath a sigh of relief.  However, it never hurts to keep your fuel economy up.  Fuel Economy Help has some very interesting information for all drivers.  They have the top five cars ranked by fuel economy.  They also have the average price of gasoline in the United States with the highest price/state and lowest state/price indicated.  There is actually a lot of information related to oil too!  You just have to look on Fuel Economy Help to find almost anything related to cars, mileage, oil and gasoline.  My favorite part of the blog has to be the header, it’s so cute.  Haha!

So Linkable

November 14th, 2008

I love the name of this blog.  So Linkable is actually a social media similar to Digg and Propellor that allows you to vote on different social media stories.  They are extremely easy to get to the top of right now, only requiring two or three votes.  It’s a very interesting idea, and I think that the site itself will do very well.  Also, So Linkable has a blog.  It seems rather sparse at this point, but I am sure that is because they are putting a lot more of their energy into the main site, which looks great!  The blog does have useful information about So Linkable though.  If you are So Linkable check them out!
