I wrote an article for WebDevLounge.com on why lists are so popular, especially in blog posts.
Lists. We see them everywhere these days, and there’s no denying the fact that we all love them. Everybody from Moses (a la Ten Commandments) to MTV (Top 10 countdowns) did lists, and they’re still around. Just take a look at sites like Digg or del.icio.us and there’s bound to be at least a couple lists featured on the front page.
The article I wrote is a list itself, so all reasons mentioned also applied to it as well. What do you think?
