Class Blog Review 2-Technogorge

Class Blog Review 2-Technogorge

I just had a chance to look over Technogorge, a rather interesting blog created by Chris and Nathaly. When I initially looked through their blog, I noticed that the layout was very neat, containing nice little tabs linking recent posts and archives. However, I noticed that the design was a little dry. The only real thing to catch my eye was the title. I think this was made up for by the organization of the posts contents and the content of the posts themselves. None of the posts seemed to have bad grammar or lack of detail, and they were organized into little sections that could be expanded if the viewer wished to read more.

I like how the blog has a humorous touch to it right off the bat. "Wasting time in the 21st century" definitely gives the blog a laid-back and casual vibe which I can really resonate with. However, there isn't many humorous eye catchers after that. There are not very many pictures portrayed on the main blog, either because they're hidden in the "read more" section or simply aren't there. The pictures that are there didn't give me much of a reaction, either. I definitely did like the big white text titling their posts and the name of their blog, though! 

Overall, I would give this blogging team a 'A-' in the blog quality criteria. While the flaws in their blog (lack of exciting and humorous visuals and background) are glaring, everything else is executed well (organization, content, name, properly colored and sized text, etc.). They definitely keep producing high quality work in their posts and make it easily accessible, which is really important. I felt the experience was worthwhile and I am glad I chose this group's blog to review.
