Neatorama Redesign
a poem

Oh,Neatorama, it is time
for a lovely
redesign

I am but a student
that is true
but my fascination with layout
is not new.
i edit a section for my school paper, opinion, specifically,
and, in my opinion, a redesign
will go terrifically

though, i would lie if i were to say
that my morals weren't somewhat in the dirt,
the main reason i am posting, (as many others)
is because i want free shirts. (math puns are the first sine of madness, haha)

In any case, i do believe
it would be rather nice
if your fantastic images
took up a larger slice
for even though my acer has a monitor quite small
bigger, colorful photographs
are more visually pleasing for all.
(even those with iPhones)

This blog,to me, although, in truth, i love it very much
is only just a portal
where i find links and such
truth be told, for you asked
for my opinion, honestly
occasionally i find mental floss
superior to thee
that thought, for sure, exists in part
because of the articles' length,
providing more of these sorts of things,
would certainly be a strength

and though i do appreciate your front page policy,
with those long articles, a "break" may be better;
i believe others will agree
it is not a massive problem,
not a fatal downfall,
but scrolling to the next article
is often quite a haul.

And though i visit this website
with startling frequency,
the tabs on the side, the upcoming queue,
they are all new to me.
the browse by date seems like something,
i would definitely want to use
but all those topics and tags--
how could i ever choose?
they seem useful, that is true, but what might be fun,
is if you put them together;
or rolled them into one.
a "topic cloud," with all the tags?
those are nice and trendy
making your tag cloud act the same way
would be very friendly
I mean the kind where the popular words, are really really big?
and the tiny,seldom used tags
are as thin and fragile as twigs?
i see now that your "browse by tag"
is almost just like that,
but without exaggeration
it looks a little flat.

And as for the question of if you
have many too many posts;
to me, the plethora of articles
is better than buttered toast.
Again, i must reference mental floss,
which i also do adore,
but sometimes, i go to their website,
and i've seen all the posts before!
But here, there is always something new
for me to read and share
i love clicking the link in my favorites bar
knowing something new will be there.

Speaking of sharing, i noticed you mentioned
social media buttons
and if the readers think that those
simply amount to "nuttin'."
To this, of course, there are pros and cons,
i never use them myself,
it would not make any difference to me
if you put them upon a shelf.
but this would mean, as i'm sure you know
less viewers around here,
but, by your front page policy,
i feel that it is clear
that publicity and money
are not your only goals,
you're in it for the journalism,
not for taking tolls.

And that is why, oh this dear blog
that is so very neat,
i would like to thank you
from my hair down to my feet
you never fail, you always win
my curiosity,
you update all your articles
with high velocity,
and you fill my brain with stuff
that i can share with all my friends,
my relationship with this blog
is not anywhere near an end.
