This is a Blogger (blogspot.com) blog masquerading as a non-Blogger blog. It's not a bad thing, I assure you.

What is "Syndicated Elitist v2.0" all about?

Without an "about" page to refer to, I was left with the first post in November of 2007 to look at.

According to Benjamin, Syndicated Elitist was relaunched after being dead for 3 years. In his words, "SyndicatedElitist.com is the Official Blog of Benjamin Kerensa and his Official Web Presence and his blog will contain posts on a variety of subjects and his style of writing will come from a personal standpoint."

Site Design

As I mentioned at the beginning, this is a Blogger blog. Benjamin pointed it to his own domain name and did away with the Blogger dashboard, so it looks like any other self-hosted blog. With domain names as cheap as $7 per year (or less), this is an excellent route to take if you're willing to put up with some of the restrictions. You can save a few bucks per year on web hosting costs.

Article Content

While I would like to spend time reading more than I have, I just don't have the time right now. That probably sounds worse than it is, but I have a few other details in my life taking priority — I still wanted to take a look at Benjamin's blog and see what he had to offer.

There are some interesting articles to read, judging solely by the headlines. I picked "AOL Spammer recieves 30 month federal prison sentence" because I hate spammers with a passion. It's an information-type article and there's nothing wrong with that. It's easy to read and I enjoyed it. Tremendously.

My Overall Opinion

It's a personal blog and there's no doubt about that. It could be better, but only if Benjamin wants to spend more time with it. I would recommend adding an "about" page and doing away with some of the useless sidebar widgets (and I'm sure he knows which ones I'm talking about).

I don't like or dislike this blog. It's really hard to form any kind of opinion on a personal blog, especially one that isn't updated frequently.

Would you like a Review?

My reviews are simple, including at least one link to an article as well as a link to the blog or website. They're also absolutely free.
