Maybe it's just me and I'm missing something here, but I feel that when I see something that claims to be a Web 2.0 style, they're all pretty bland.

It seems that the days of colorful websites are turning to dim memories. Not that I particularly liked anything garish but everything appears to be that bit too plain now.

Doesn't that make life so much harder for all you creative designers out there?

Designer : "What colors would you like?"

Client: "Errr... Web 2.0 colors. White, gray and black. Oh and some dark gray. "

This site is a good example of how nice a balance you can attain without resorting to the other extreme of eyeball searing pages like you see on MySpace.

Anyone think the overall trend in Web 2.0 style is too far to the opposite end of the spectrum? Could be of course I just haven't seen that many examples but I'd like to see some kind of middle ground.

But then maybe it wouldn't be Web 2.0... It's all a matter of personal taste, I guess.
