The Gossip Sites : From DListed to Perez

[firstaid]

Micheal K of Dlisted is hilarious but he seems to be slipping. I remember a couple of years ago, his blog was addictively good, he would post every hour or every other hour. Now, not so much, his snark seems to be dying.

As far as Ted, I gave up on him a long time ago. I hate Ted Speak, and can't be bothered to read his blind items.

I adore Michael K. The crude language doesn't bother me at all; in fact, it's kind of endearing now (twisted I know). I love his jokes about St. Angie and Our Lady of Cheetos, and his undying love for Mah Boo Anderson Cooper.

I tend to avoid the internet on weekends, but Dlisted is the one site I have to check daily.

I am addicted to D Listed. But yeah, I noticed that the posts are coming far and few between. I just recently got familiar with D Listed so I can only imagine how frustrated the longtimers must be. Back when the site was updated more frequently.

Next thing you know, we'll find out he's not really gay.

One of my fav things about DListed is the the Birthday Slut picture.
Today's is a most frightening one of Courtney Love.
Yikes.
Where does he find these things?

Has ONTD been taken over by Taylor Swift stans? I swear, every second or thrid post in the past week has been a Taylor-related one. I know she's a massive star (for reasons I'll never get) but come on.

TMZ exaggerates all the damn time.

Example 1: Neverland Ranch restored to former glory. Michael Jackson's Neverland Ranch has been miraculously restored, after falling into disrepair in the last years of Michael Jackson's life.

Miraculously restored TMZ? They did the damn landscaping.

Example 2: Waka Flocka's Pad -- Post-Raid Damage. On the TV show, they referred to this home as a mansion. Umm, most mansions I've been in have bigger then 8 by 6 bedrooms, just saying. And how do we know the FBI did this? Really looks like the work of a normal 20 something man to me.

If anyone is interested I'll keep posting these.

I refuse to go to TMZ due to that "Who would you rather" sexist shit. A bunch of 15-year old boys running that site.

[Ladybug]

Has anyone checked out Gawker or Jezebel today? They've done a HORRIBLE makeover of these sites. I can't figure out how to comment on any stories, and the menu on the side is for crap. It really looks awful and is terribly user unfriendly. I thought websites stopped using frames 10 years ago! Supposedly, the redesign was done to make the sites easier to use on the iPad. I say screw the iPad and bring back the regular blog format! GRRR.

Oh I'm glad I'm not the only one who thinks the redesign is utter crap. I noticed it last week on io9 when I was looking for spoilers. I thought about checking the comments there for backlash but decided that was more effort than it was worth.

On a semi related note, I really hate how ONTD only posts 10 stories per page now.
