I like it. Lots of personality, you know they're there to make it fun.

We could do with a return of the GeoCities self-made-page aesthetic (with improved aesthetic sense, of course) on a web where everything on the big sites is neatly templated and identical in layout. Amidst all the consistency, I've been missing the touches that used to make personal sites unique. All people do on their blogs now is throw on funny pictures; the format/layout is never broken, or it simply can't be.

This is a good reminder to us to break the mould whenever we feel it's appropriate (or whenever we feel like it).

That's an excellent point. But I hope people who build mold-breaking tools realize that most people don't have sufficiently strong aesthetic sense to create beautiful things out of the gate.

For whatever reason, we keep having to relearn the "angry fruit salad" lesson over and over: http://www.catb.org/jargon/html/A/angry-fruit-salad.html

I feel the opposite and don't particularly care for it. The page is basically content free has some content that is difficult to read and contains seizure inducing animation.

Exactly, anyone who thinks this is an improvement is not thinking it through.
