Blog Review: Tiggyblog

What Is This Blog About?

Tiggyblog is a crazy but humorous blog that is best described by the blogs author Tiggy “It’s stuff that comes out of my brain.”

Design

Tiggyblog has a nice clean 2 column blog design that is based on the WuCoco theme. It has a brilliant header and some nice images integrated within the posts. However, the blogs author needs to change the blogs permalinks, as they are numbered.

User Friendliness

This blog is easy to navigate despite the fact it has no navigation bar, because the design of the blog is so clean. The sidebar allows easy navigation by category, recent posts and comments.

Content

The content of this blog is best described as humorous. It contains posts on a wide variety of crazy topics depending on whatever the author is thinking of at the time.

Reader Enjoyment

A brilliant blog, that is definitely worth a read.

Blog Review: CrashedUp.com

What Is This Blog About?

CrashedUp.com is a magazine style blog with videos, podcasts and reviews (to be added in the future).

Design

The design of CrashedUp.com is different in that it is powered by Joomla, which is an unusual choice for bloggers. The header looks good and the overall feel of the blog is very clean. However, it definitely needs an about section, as it is very difficult to decipher initially what the blog is about.

User Friendliness

This blog is easy to navigate due to a brilliant navigation bar located at the top of the blog. It also has useful latest news and popular posts sections.

Content

The content of this blog varied, which is good to see in a blog. However, it is difficult to judge because this blog is only a few weeks old.

Blog Review: Small Steps to Health

What Is This Blog About?

Small Steps to Health is the blog of a 30 something and how she tries to balance her weight while dealing with the demands of her career and family.

Design

Small Steps to Health
is a good example of how customizable blogger can be. It has a two column sidebar which includes some decent widgets such as popular posts and recent comments. However, although it has an about me section at the top of the sidebar, I would prefer that it had some text rather than a link to the blogger about me page. It also has a bit to many amazon adverts on one page, with a total of five. However, another good point is that it includes some good photographs integrated into its posts.

User Friendliness

This blog is easy to navigate despite the fact it has no navigation bar, as it has an archives widget at the top of the sidebar closest the content. I also like the use of feedburner headlines, which helps to point readers to other posts.

Content

The content of this blog as the title suggests is very specialised and therefore will not appeal to all. However, it does have some good advice for those who are interested in loosing weight and it is well written.

Reader Enjoyment

Despite the fact that I am not trying to loose weight I did find the content of the posts very interesting and I especially enjoyed her honestly.

Overall Blogtasticness

To quote Asithi “Until next time and thanks for stopping by.”
