A great blog I found on TIME's "The Best Blogs of 2011" was The Big Picture, which also was on Mrs. G's list. The Big Picture's style is to report on a subject through high-resolution photographs, with captions and small articles/paragraphs attached. The pictures are 990 pixels, and they usually depict some stunning visual, with the subject varying to fit the news story. This is put up by the Boston Globe, and their professionalism shows through. The stories are informative with some commentary, and the pictures all have some personal aspect to them; the person's name is included, their story is told, or the picture itself is intimate and revealing. It is set up so that you see an image of one subjet, and attached to that one picture are 20-70 other related pictures, so that you can look more in-depth into the subject. The audience is the general public, as the issues are of all-encompassing subject matters. It's effective because it's short and to-the-point, which is good for news because you can find what interests you faster and bypass the negative shit. The pictures are clear and are usually stunning, and I like them so much that I've followed them. So take a look at this blog, it's really worth your time!
