    ^^ I hit enter too soon. Summary:

    The list below is a summary of many of the common features of typical "Web 2.0" sites.

    Clearly, a site doesn't need to exhibit all these features to work well, and displaying these features doesn't make a design "2.0" - or good!

    I've already addressed some of these factors in my introductory Current Style article.

    1. Simplicity
    2. Central layout
    3. Fewer columns
    4. Separate top section
    5. Solid areas of screen real-estate
    6. Simple nav
    7. Bold logos
    8. Bigger text
    9. Bold text introductions
    10. Strong colours
    11. Rich surfaces
    12. Gradients
    13. Reflections
    14. Cute icons
    15. Star flashes
