As a follow to my recent blog design trends post, I just found a tongue-in-cheek tutorial which shows you how to make a Web 2.0 layout.
Under the humour are these trends – which ends up being a very similar list to mine:
- Keep the design simple
- White background
- Arial
- Horizontal navigation with coloured background
- Links invert on mouseover with a coloured background
- Large font size for headers
- Subtle yellow highlights for selected text
- Gradients
- Tag clouds

And believe it or not, I tried to make my site super web2.0 (well… just partially) and people told me to reduce the size of the font headers and text in general. They said it was too big!
There’s people which do not like to escape from the verdana 11px

Believe it or not I’d like to say I don’t want to take my eyes in my hands to read a blog or website. But I Don’t like very big fonts too. This weel I discuss webdesign trends 2006 with german webdesigner and blogger by several interviews. Is this an interesting to read for you?
