Understanding Eli
Understanding Eli is yet another personal blog. This one at least gets updated a few times each century, which is much better than nothing.
Most of these personal blogs get a new post every two and a half months for about two and a half months and then drop completely out of cyberspace (not that anyone misses them). This one at least has a bit of staying power, at least enough to keep from getting kicked out of entrecard.
So, what about specifics. Layout? Okay, not bad. Content? Lame. Regular updates? Poor.
Overall? If you really are interested in finding about somebody who purports to be a random guy called Eli, then this is the blog for you. If, on the other hand you are interested in finding out something useful or reading something entertaining, then skip it.

Cats Who Twitter
Okay, blogs about people's pointless lives are pretty bad. I mean it is bad enough that someone has nothing more productive to do with their time than talk about how unproductive they are, but when this extends to talking about the unproductive things that the animals in other people's lives do it has gone far enough.
Cats Who Twitter is, of course, about cats. Now I don't personally have anything against cats. They go great with a good salad or on a sandwich. I don't mind dogs either, though they can be harder to catch. But I don't think I would spend many hours creating a virtual shrine to their existence.
The site itself ain't half bad as far as layout and content and originality and all that go. I mean the photos are good and the writing is acceptable, but let's not forget that we are talking about the random ramblings, not of your insane co-workers, but of your insane co-workers' cats. The little fuzzballs are getting more online notoriety than you. They are also getting more online attention than me, which just burns.

Magickal Tails
Magickal Tails is one dog dedicated blog. I have to give them tons of props for sticking to the theme and posting often. I don't know that I've seen so many siberian husky photos in one place on the internet ever (and I spend way too much time online, so you can guess that I've seen a lot of siberian husky photos).
That said, I really got a bit put off by the combination of title and layout. No, I will not pass up the opportunity to mock the title. Spelling Magickal with a ck is just too quaint. Not in the dictionary, not the adult spelling, but definitely quaint. I guess I think too much like google these days. I think I was expecting stories about sleigh dogs or something. At least something involving magic of some sort. I think it was the sparkling starry background.
The great big guest book signing widget at the top is mondo distracting. I kinda couldn't figure out if it was an ad or what for a minute. The blog has this "stare at me a moment while I make up my mind" sort of look to it when you first get there.
If you love dogs, then this is for you, but be warned that it may take a moment for your eyes to adjust. On the other hand, if you find dogs annoying then you will want to either give it a miss OR drop a mocking comment suggesting that dogs are an inferior species and don't deserve more ad space than me ;)

Make Money Online
Okay there are sooo many blogs out there about making money. Most all of them are really blogs about nothing that throw in a few affiliate links and mix it up with tips about building backlinks to your blog.
Make Money Online with EJ Cooksey ain't much different folks. If you've seen one, you've seen this one. Sure there are some pretty pics and utterly pointless videos, but otherwise it looks just like random rants meets I hope you buy my pointless product.
At least you don't get bombarded at the outset with tons of messages about networking sites that have zero possibility of increasing your readership or of actually turning a dime into a dollar.
I guess I'll just step back and wish them good luck. If they make the money then good for them. If they don't well, I guess I'll see you next time I need fries with my burger.
