This blog / project has come a long way from his early beginnings. At first this was a simple idea I conjured up. Thinking that the world needs to know what kind of potential there really is out there. Blogging has seen so much growth in recent years, it seems that it will continue to grow at an exponential rate.
With this growth, comes territory. People want to jump in on this wave to claim their spot in its infancy stage. The only way to stand out from the crowd you really need to brand yourself, your image and your whole personality.
Coming from Cash For Comments, my beginner site. I decorated this Blogging the Movie site with a BOLD RED and YELLOW. I thought that these colors would stand out and make it easily recognizable. After a few words from friends and reviews from forums.digitalpoint.com I decided that a change was needed. This new blue theme works well.
Blue
It symbolizes professionalism and trust. Lets think about this for a minute. Have you ever been to a stop light wanting to get gas. Then you come across 2 gas stations one Shell (red and yellow) and the other one Chevron (Blue, White and Red). I’m not sure about you, but for some reason I’m 80% more inclined to go to use the Chevron Gas Station, even if it means I have to turn and drive a little bit further to get there. Colors really do affect the way we feel.
Other Blue Sites:
Hotmail, Gmail, Wordpress, AOL, John Chow, Shoemoney.. this list goes on and on. But if you really want to have that trustworthy image, GO BLUE!

Is hard to distinguish with just blue because a lot of companies use them! Maybe do a combo =)

I’m not a big fan of all the blue — but what do I know, my site is brown!
