New blog skin….but do you care?

Posted by – January 18, 2008

Today I rolled out my new blog skin for neilmiddleton.com. I did change it a few weeks ago but I was finding quite hard to read and quite crowded. For me, what I have now has a little more thought behind it, and it is more intuitive.

But, when I was working on this I had a thought. How many of you out there actually care that I even have a blog style? I would have thought that on the modern semantic web most of you will be reading this in various feed readers, or aggregators like feed-squirrel.com, therefore, to you I am merely a paragraph of text.

Some people spend ages working on their blog designs, working it up from a clean sheet of paper to a implemented design and for me this makes sense coming from a design background. However, if you are like me, you download and tweak one of the many designs already out there.

But, and here’s the question, does anyone really care?
