Simple and useful, very cool.

One thing I thought was interesting as I was clicking around was how so many of the sites have "converged" to a single UI design style, e.g. full screen photo background overlaid with a short blurb about the site, and a big slightly rounded-rectangular "start" button (sometimes some text fields), then as you scroll down you usually get a couple horizontally laid out big icons, etc. etc.

Of course, this isn't surprising, but it just becomes so apparent as you click refresh. Just thought it was interesting, that's all.



I also noticed a high frequency of "X made simple" or "X made easy" headers on the landing page.


Most sites seem to look like a Bootstrap template, even if they don't use Bootstrap.


Just goes to show the impact those guys from Twitter have made. Whether that's a positive thing or a negative thing, it is still massive.
