From the Weekend Magazine [September 2, 2006]
of The Australian newspaper.
One of the things I hate about the internet is the sameness. I always have, and I’ve been doing websites now for a while. I only have 2 sites loaded at the moment, one is a Wedding Album I made for my son’s wedding - the other celebrates one of the achievements of my older sister Roberta. Both are different, I think.
I’ve done your regulation basic sort of sites, commercially and some not-for-pay work for an organisation I belong to, but what frustrates me is that every web page you go to has been designed in the mold of the current fashion. It’s always been like that. I really like the blog style of website, it’s interaction as it’s best - but for heavens sake, every website I go to these days is done blog-style, boring, boring, boring...
In the beginning, there was no ‘flash’ and no streaming media or blogs, no dreamweaver, even making sites these days is a no-brainer. For a while there everything was ‘frames’. And the colors - what is it at the moment, everybody seems to think light blue on lighter blue is sexy or something? (or whatever, but light on light, with a background of light - I give up when I have to strain to see what’s on the page)
on a lighter note:
hilarious!
Tanya from the purple giraffe has blogged about checking stats on visitors which included the search terms used by visitors to be given her site as a ‘match’. The results can be very funny -
‘pictures of piecing of the penis’
‘cheetah and teal bedroom stuff’
‘pictures of clean homes’
‘crocs with pantyhose’
‘picture of bird poop’
I’ve listed a few, you can see others and some funny comments on Tanya’s blog.
I'm off to the shops!

Crocs with pantyhose??? Steve Irwin never mentioned those...
Della...Della...be nice...be kind to me...treat me gently! I'm sensitive! ;) My blog is probably on your 'boring list' as I have no frills and fancy bits! I'm brain-dead...it's a no- brainer! My blog may not look 'sexy' but I'll write about it if that will liven things up a bit! ;) hehehehe!
Hi Lee... no, no, no - I LOVE simple, don't get me wrong - it's the SAMENESS that bores me - when something becomes fashionable, then everybody does the same thing, and all the sites end up looking the same, with the same themes and patterns and things.
I like everything and anything, if it is well-done, I have very open criteria, I like what looks good, whether it's up-to-the-minute, or old-fashioned, or just plain different. I don't use flash and pop and scroll and blink very much myself, but I need to know how to do it so there is a little bit here and there.
The way I see a blog, is that it is about the CONTENT, and mostly the layout needs to follow a sensible pattern, so the style of a blog, is, well, blog-styled, but these days every web page you visit looks like a blog.
Where is the art?
Your blog is definitely NOT on my boring list, I love your stuff...
lol I was just having a go at you, Della! ;) I have a weird sense of humour and the ridiculous! ;)
Oh yairs, I can go along with all of those, although the oats would have to be hidden in oatmeal cookies.
Hi,
Thank you for leaving a comment on my blog a while back, I must apologise for taking so long to get back to you.
Spinach - low-calorie, fibre, eyesight--in my country right now it's also a good source of e.coli.
