Flashback: What BMW Looked Like Years Ago

September 3rd, 2009 · 4 Comments

After reading the UK Telegraph article, How 20 popular websites looked when they launched, I thought it might be interested to show what this blog looked like in its early days.  Below are Bob McCarty Writes home page screen shots from November 2006 and July 2007.

Let me know what you think.  Has it improved?  Will it compete with Google, Facebook, Yahoo or YouTube one day?  Inquiring minds want to know.

    The new look today looks too cartoony to me. I’m a person that comprehends more with less on the screen, this screen has massive amounts of clutter down each side with valuable information down the center column.
    That’s just me.

    Thanks for the input. Doesn’t mean I’ll change anything, of course, but I appreciate the input. [SFX: Crinkle, crunch, fold, mash...whoosh...sound of a piece of paper hitting the inside of a plastic trash can.] No, really, I appreciate it. Do you have a site?

    I’m sorry. I thought you were looking for constructive opinion. You’re in my reader because you’re one of my favorite writers. Most of the time I only read through my reader so I don’t see the stuff that would distract me.
    Thanx for listening. I don’t mind being wadded up and thrown away. Much. No, really. (owie)

    No harm intended. Just playing the role of eccentric blogger. Thanks for reading!
