What’s a blog-powered web site? Well, the LarsonCreative.net web site is one! kathy’s-art.com, themainplace.com, and villagetheatrearts.com are examples too.

Strengths: Design ability, animation, speed..
Weaknesses: compatibility with flash players, compatibility with internet and mobile browsers, bandwidth, deviation from web standards, SEO..
