Ribbit

I got re-frogged!

Wondy Woman

This is a re-review. You can find the original here.

All of the technical things Lily mentioned have been cleaned up. I would like to see some kind of header. There is a light pink “Wondy Woman” at the top and it gets lost on the vast expanse of white that is the background. I not saying that you need to junk it up, but a more definitive statement of your title would be good. Right now, it’s like a whisper, but at least it links back to the home page. The side bar is neat and rolled up.

The posts are all fine, a little short for the most part, and it doesn’t help a new reader jump in to what is going on. I found myself wishing for more. More words, more something, more of her. Reporting that you have the flu is fine. Knowing that you went to the zoo in Berlin is great. But blogging is in the details. I need more details. How was the zoo? Was is smelly, sunny, did the monkeys throw shit at you? If you don’t provide any details why will people want to read?

Anyone can go to the internet and post an old picture of their brother. Make it yours by telling me more about it, or about your brother or links to other stories about your brother. I understand that a lot of the travel posts were done in a hostel and on the road, so they may be short. But tell me about it when you get back.

She obviously took Lily’s advice to heart and worked hard on her template, and there’s no more of the reposting of emails and things that Lily spoke of, and that is certainly worth another bug.

Yey! I know what they mean about the recent shortness of posts, purely brought on because I've been running here there and everywhere, and this may get worse whilst in Thailand - but I do plan to tell more about Berlin and will in the next few days.

All in all not a bad little review, better than being called an idiot, like in the 'other one'!
