Appearance and Style - (Out of 20)
I absolutely love your blog's appearance. Your blog appears as a unique professional general blog. It's clearly had a lot of development put into it. It's very creative. I just love the concept. Everything about your appearance just seems to be great, I have no complaints. Now, to the style. Your blog's style is pretty nice. I feel it might be a little too white though. The black is a nice touch in the color scheme though. I like that the content area stands out because of the background. The custom graphics are great. The logo looks nice but the slogan may be a bit difficult to read for some people. I like how the favicon matches the logo. I think the logos promoting blog post(s) looks nice. It shows a lot of commitment. the jQuery slider looks excellent. It's very professional. I feel the affiliates could be displayed in a better way and they should be the same size, or sized to be the same size. I feel the advertisements may annoy some people, but you have to generate revenue somehow. Overall, I think your blog's appearance is excellent and the style is very nice as well. Excellent work.

Blog Layout and Categorization - (Out of 20)
I don't see any problems with your blog's layout. I know that some people don't like double menus though (menu above and below logo). I feel the Facebook like button on the header is out of place. It just appears sort of random. It's good that you are using things like that as so many people use Facebook, but it needs to be positioned with a little more organization. I feel it would look great on the top menu. There's room for it there as well. I feel the social network floating side table looks fine though. It definitely catches eyes and hopefully promotes social network interactions that promote your. I think the categorization is fine as well. Your categories seem to cover everything. There's even a "Just Blogging" category that is basically a unique off-topic category. Overall, your layout and categorization is pretty nice. Great job.

Commenting Activity and Other Interactions - (Out of 20)
It appears to me that commenting is done through Facebook's social plugin. That is a great tool considering so many people are on Facebook these days. I feel there should be other ways to comment though. Not everyone is comfortable using such commenting systems as it gives out their personal social network account normally. Commenting activity still seems to be going great. It's obvious to me that when people have something to say about your blog post, they're sure to say it. It looks to me that this has even created commenting discussions. That's great. Even blog posts that aren't as motivational when it comes to commenting get a few comments. What does that say? Controversial blog posts seem to really promote commenting activity. That makes me think that debate-oriented blog posts may get more comments. There doesn't seem to be any other interactions besides commenting, besides the social network interactions, which is going well obviously, as the commenting system uses a social network. Good luck improving your blog's commenting activity.

Quality and Frequency of Posts - (Out of 20)
Your blog posts certainly seem to be of high quality. It's safe to say they're great. They are detailed, but short, sweet, and to the point. Every blog post I looked at had multiple paragraphs and they appeared to have been well-thought out and developed. So, quality isn't a problem from what I see. I would have given this review category a 20/20 if it was just for blog posting quality. The low score is because of frequency of posting though. There actually seems to be a new blog post every couple days, which is fine, but having inactive blog categories is a problem. The blog posts need to either be more frequent so each category can get blog posts or the blog posts being made need to spread out. It just looks bad when your blog has categories that have not had a blog post in quite awhile, including a category that has not had a blog post in it in over a month. That's not very good. I wish you the best of luck making improvements.

Spelling/Grammar - (Out of 20)
Spelling and grammar doesn't seem to be a problem on your blog. Your blog appears to be very professional, but very fun at the same time. This creates a casual feel anyways, so there's no reason to be a bit nit picky when it comes to spelling and grammar. Remember, you still want your blog posts to be high quality blog posts, so you should proof read, spell check, etc. I will go ahead and point out a few errors I noticed. I don't really feel I need to point out spelling and grammar mistakes. I scanned through multiple blog posts and no errors caught my eye. That's a first, great job on that. Let's hope you can keep up the good blog posts with little spelling and grammar. Good luck.

Final Remarks:
What was most liked about the blog:
I love the overall concept, the creativity, the unique blog posts, and the custom graphics.
What was disliked most about the blog:Most categories don't receive blog posts very often. I feel the blog posting should be somewhat spread out between categories.
How could I get you (The Reviewer) to read my blog?
You could expand on what your blog offers. Your blog seems very general, and it has a lot of different categories, but your blog doesn't seem to be actively posted in the media-related categories which interest me, compared to other categories.
