There is no shortage of places to submit your design work or tutorials. I’m talking about web design, graphics design, font design, poster design etc… These types of submissions in my opinion don’t seem to fare so well on the good old faithfuls like Digg or Mixx as they are geared...

The not so cool cuil.com
Is it just me or are we seeing more blog reviews about Cuil.com then anything else right now? After about 12 different blogs I had visited were talking about it, I decided I would visit Cuil.com and see what the raving was about.

Review of Bharat Boom.com
Review of Bharat Boom.com
My latest review of a Pligg powered website is Bharat Boom, niched installed which caters to Indian news. Design (7/10): the design is definitely not your typical Pligg layout, its a 3 column layout, rounded corners, and a black background. I am not a fan of black backgrounds as this can make reading...
