Simply Stating the Obvious is a great blog to read if you’re looking to just relax with some light, friendly fun. You’ll find anything from the latest on CBS soaps and musings about favorite programs like Journeyman and as Liz says on her “About” page, “anything and everything that strikes my fancy”.

I agree by the way, that NBC’s Journeyman needs to stay, or at this point, be brought back. They had a great storyline going and just left it hanging.

So if you’re looking for a good blog, Simply Stating the Obvious is a good place to go. You’ll have fun reading. Oh, and lets not forget contests! There was one recently involving the new A&E miniseries remake of “The Andromeda Strain” and she’s talking about another contest coming up sometime soon.

Readability 8.5

Not bad, the text color of #666666 (medium-dark gray) on white background made me have to squint just a tad but the font size was large enough to keep it good and readable.

Layout 9.5

A three column arrangement with a narrow header that allows a large portion of the first post on the page to be visible above the fold. single post pages would benefit from having next & prev post links would make browsing site easier

Load time 9.8

Excellent. Firebug reports loading 50 requests (216kb) in 9.75 seconds

Scrollability 9.7

Great. Smooth scrolling even while the page is loading

Writing 9.5

The author has a light, friendly neighborhood type of style that makes posts fun to read because it’s more like people just chatting than the way some blogs can sound more like somebody with an eternal ‘tude ranting about stuff.
