    Oh so its just another aggregation based celeb gossip blog. So? You would think with this woman's connections it could have given us a bit more fresh content. This is just as bad looking as TMZ and thats saying a lot. #bonniefuller

    Biggest surprise? Not one bit of breaking news or original scoopage on the entire (loooong) front page! We can get force-fed Twilight coverage --and we will-- anywhere. There's nothing clickworthy here at all.

    In short, day one seems to prove what many naysayers were saying when this whole deal was announced: there are already enough, i.e. too many, pink-and-flashy celeb gossip sites on the web... it's completely unnecessary... #bonniefuller

    On the bright side, the cretinous illiteracy of the copy makes up for the relentless parade of fug design.

    Quoth the Fuller in a post scriptum to her welcome letter:

    "And [thanks] especially to designer EunSun Lee who worked so hand in hand (sic) with Willie and I (sic) to design the all-new HollywoodLife. Thanks, thanks, and triple thanks to everybody!"

    EunSun Lee, you naughty rascal! Bonnie Fuller, you accusative case-challenged, dyslexic minx! Scotch, bourbon and triple sec for you both! #bonniefuller

    ". . . thus requiring absurd amounts of scrolling to see just one item."

    New to the bottom of the home page is a prominent ad for carpal-tunnel screening. For more information, just click and scroll. #bonniefuller

    I came here specifically to comment on the size of the pictures, so I'm glad you were as turned off by them as I was. Also, every single headline except for two has at least one exclamation point (the two that don't are questions). The whole thing definitely needs tweaking.

    That said -- Ay, mami! #bonniefuller

    @mfnher: I know, right? It's almost as if she took them directly from the photo agency and then forgot to resize everything. Pictures that big should be placed after a cut and/or turned into clickable thumbnails. #bonniefuller

    I know next to zilch about the west coast despite four visits there (all business), so I am the best mark for a map, except...I want totally GAY landmarks, you know, Judy's house, where Stewart Grainger got killed by a hustler, Rock Hudson's house, Bette Davis...surely there is a tour for me.

    This isn't much worse than the actual star maps they sell in Hollywood, which direct you to places like Lucille Ball's house, a condo some desperate Realtor claims Brad Pitt used to rent, and the fence in front of the gate in front of the road leading to Tori Spelling's mom's house.

    Wow. I gotta say, someone in the world of journalism is clearly laying off the wrong people. They don't employ staffers who live or have an even moderate knowledge of the environs they supposedly cover? No one thought, "hmmm, i've never heard my l.a. friends talk about driving on 'the 4'". oy.

    hahahahah nice
    I always assume they let the Beverly Hills Star Maps guys stay in business because their maps are completely inaccurate.
    This is better though!

    I confess I used to purchase London style bible I-D back in my youth. As a pretentious teenage poser, I gladly handed over my $8 for an ephemeral piece of Haute Culture.
