The Blonde Board

A long neglected personal project of mine I decided to revamp the Blonde Board website and set aside a little time to keep it updated.

It’s a site with a fun aspect aimed at collecting together daft comments made by people from all over the internet.

Sensational headlines and living up to your own hype

January 21st, 2010


Google Reader screenshot(My RSS reader on a good day)

Recently I’ve been a bit disappointed by a number of articles. They’ve promised me the world and they’ve delivered nothing short of disappointment and badly re-hashed content. But why should I have expected anything? – Because the title of these articles promised so much.
I know blog titles are written to pull in readers, the way we digest the content through twitter and RSS feeds means that titles are written to get people onto the site and add another eyeball to the all important visitor count.

New website : www.theblondeboard.com

January 15th, 2010



OK so it’s not 100% new, it is an old site that I’ve finally got around to breathing a new lease of life into. Still it enabled me to have a play with some things – CSS3 transforms and transitions, typekit and some nice drop caps. I’ve kept it all nice and simple as it will be a mostly text based site.
Let me know what you think

(I’ll be adding a tutorial here about CSS3 transforms and transitions so add the RSS feed to your reader so you don’t miss out!)

The homepage is alive and kicking

January 13th, 2010


To be honest I’ve never written an article as a response to some others I’ve read but I’ve heard recently that the homepage is dead! -

http://www.drawar.com/articles/are-homepages-dead-or-are-we-missing-the-boat/69/

http://feedusblog.com/detail.asp?c=614967

Yep your good old index.php or whatever you use isn’t any good any more, it’s been killed by social media, ad-words and deep linking dropping people right into the belly of your website.
So I doubt you’re all going to delete your homepage and leave users with nothing at the top of your website are you? I thought not, which is exactly why the homepage is alive and kicking.

January 5th, 2010


Well I started this post knowing full well there’d be plenty of resolution posts around as we enter this new year, and having not got this finished quickly, there are plenty around. You can’t really make anyone follow a resolution and you should all take up your own but here’s five suggestions from me, if you have room in your life for 12 then head over to Six Revisions and have a read of A Designer’s List of New Year’s Resolutions.

So thanks to everyone for reading the blog this year and here is my take on something which I have a feeling may have been done before somewhere.
