TOVBlog

Above is the URL for Roger Waggener's "TOVBlog".

Below is my humble review for the "Peer-to-peer Review Project".

"TOVBlog" is first (as the author himself states) not ugly; the layout is clean, uncluttered and orderly. I appreciated the content starting right at the top of the page (NO BANNERS!) using a font large enough to read. My only criticism of the site also lies here also...I found the text difficult to read due to the font color. The site uses a "tone on tone" color scheme, which looks great, but the light font color was a problem for me. Perhaps using the darkest brown you can generate would resolve this issue Roger. Then again this may be a problem only my eyeballs experience.

The content is the BEST feature of TOVBlog, and after all that's the point isn't it. Most of the stories are obscure...they caught and held my attention for some time. Rogers "pre-comments" on the stories are just enough to get you interested in taking a peek at the link.

I'm no writer myself so I won't comment on his writing style or ability.

Besides the font color I'd suggest Roger add Moveable Type's "comment" feature to his blog.
