HIya!

I would like to ask what do you guys think are the current website trends? With regards to design, font, spaces, content whatever!

Me and my friend would like to create a new site wherein we could have lots of traffic (of course we’ll do promotion) with Google Adsense. We don’t have an idea what to work on so we figured maybe we could do some research on what kind of sites are people into nowadays or what kind of sites are earning a lot of traffic. Blogs, graphic sites, script sites what what what?!?!? *smacks head on the table* owwww…

Does anybody have any ideas. Comments, suggestions, advice are welcome anytime!

Thanks! :)
