whats the difference between the two:
Although content wise, the two lists appear identical yet its presentation styles are largely dissimilar. Unlike the HTML page, the Blinklist is not a mere lists of links rather a page of invitation for interested individuals to join the community for the purpose of creating links. However, the need of creating a log at the top page of the site will make one a member of the community. Moreso, whatever links are chosen will have their own community rating system.

what are the benefits:
HTML version simply conveys information about links, additional content is not available. Advantageous to an HTML version is its easy loading due to less content. The ratings scheme of Blinklist is useful and relevant to people, as valuable content can be recognized by the community and the author receives recognition for it.
