You know, there's a lot to be said about a good blog. Sure, you may have been interested in the subject for a while, but to be able to retain and develop that interest is the challenge.
My personal fav is Autoblog, a site dedicated to automotive news and views from around the world. I still love automobiles like I did when I was a kid, and feel like this is one of the most historic moments for the industry, from both a financial and design standpoint of vehicles. I really think the editors have a great blog, with rapid updates and good content. This week Autoblog presents the Top 10 Most Forgotten Hatchbacks, a series of various models from the past 20 years. It's definitely entertaining to see.
This short photo serial is not only cool from an auto enthusiast perspective (I actual laughed when I saw the fastback A-body Grand Prix and Monte Carlo -- it's a stretch to include these vehicles, being that they are not hatchbacks), but the site post is cool from a blogging perspective. Serial photos or subjects can help generate targeted traffic, as well as evergreen subjects that come up every year. Sometimes it pays to see how blogs on various subjects can challenge your assumptions (See my earlier post on Andy Cohen).
Take a look at the Autoblog serial. In the meantime, may your dream cars be a bit larger than the ones in my photo below. Enjoy.
May your dream wheels be larger than Hot Wheels!
