He was a right Quint...
What's a video, about a monomanical sea captain, got to do with Web Design(?) you may ask ;)

No comment?...
Often overlooked, the humble 'comment' list can house some serious discussion or (more than likely) serious pontification. Either way, it's valuable content and these examples go some way to show a current trend in 'designed' comment lists.
Some aren't great, but more importantly the examples represent consistency in-line with their respective sites.

Awesome Light Graffiti Pictures
Great, simple idea with very creative execution. Worth look at.

Distributed Identity
The concept is simple. Most of us own several identities online (Facebook, Blog, Technorati, Amazon etc etc). They are all from the same, common source but each one will be specifically tailored to it's given purpose. We therefore operate a 'Distributed Identity'.
This concept can be expanded by looking at how these identities can be presented, navigated and aggregated.
Zoolit, for example, is a shareable Web page that lists all your personal sites. Great, but you could probably manage without it.
Marketing agency, Zeus Jones, puts a slightly different spin on aggregation with hot-links to specific, business related areas.
Further spinning and Paul Bradshaw cleverly uses a Google search results page to present his work. He has even managed to include a narrative to the page, albeit divisive.
Maximum spin now and the mild genius of Modernista! is an exercise in brevity. As their introduction alludes...
"Do not be alarmed.
You are viewing Modernista! through the eyes of the Web."
So, powerful and simple stuff. I am sure a company, with multiple brand branches, could find not a better model for spreading their delights on the web...
