Steve Swain's Blog

Here is a personal blog that is somewhat interesting:

stevenswain.blogspot.com/

This is some guy in Virginia who writes about personal observations. Mostly cultural issues. And largely about fashion.

And boy, does he like to write!

Fortunately, unlike a lot of personal blogs, he does not get too involved in his personal life. Which is good, because most people have lives that really are not worthy of being read.

I did not read much of his posts - there is far too much to read, and I don't have a lot of time - but he does seem to add something to the blogosphere. After all, not a lot of blogs dedicate a lot of space to malls - at least of those who are not pimply-faced 14 year olds! A person of his age has more perspective to say something useful about malls and fashion.

The weak spot on this blog is it is focused too much in one aspect of life - fashion and malls - but it is not totally dedicated to it. So the grade is affected somewhat. However, he is being honest in that he is not trying to be something he appears not to be.

Grade: B
