Yesterday i started redesigning of Designbeep but before that i wanted to check the design evolution of some well-known design and development blogs.It was really interesting to see the past designs so i decided to create a post and show you about the design evolution of popular blogs.Some of them were totally redesigned and some of them stayed almost the same except a few changes like buttons,sidebars,fonts etc.

Wow, very cool. Did you take these screenshots years ago or use the wayback machine? Either way, it so cool to see the evolution of some of my favorite design sites. Thanks for putting this up!
