Snoozefeeders

Okay, I suppose that newsreaders are quite practical, but looking at blogpost after blogpost all in the same format makes me nod off.

It's like reading from an ebook, or reading journal articles in a database. When you don't go to the original source, you miss out on the content creator's original design. I like seeing what fonts and type of paper an author or publisher has chosen for a book, I like seeing the layout of a journal or magazine, ads and all, and I also like visiting the actual blog site. Visiting the sites themselves give me a feel about their writers, and makes for a more personal, first-hand experience.
