Most are quite cluttered with many hierarchies competing for attention. Almost all use the same tired two-column+header/footer blog format with a lot of information present upfront with little to no filtration. Sure, they do the job, but most don't really have much fun with it. I agree with Peter, time for something new. Ehhhhh some of these sites may be effective, but “clean” they are not.

Your article was great in pointing out that usability and a clean homepage are components in making a website look beautiful and effective. However, I was disappointed with many of the examples that you showed. I have seen some beautiful designs that have lots of content (such as apple.com as oppose to amazon.com). It seems a lot of your selections are websites that perhaps you are familiar with because you visit them often, and that you've become accustomed to the way they present their information. You also included a lot of content-heavy and blog websites, which I think too often have too many links, options, and text and not enough hierarchy (think, wired.com). I'd like to see a second part to this article that addresses more visual and less content heavy websites that are beautifully and effectively executed.

In fact many of these aren't attractive at all. For designs that, in my view, more closely fit the "clean" and "beautiful" labels, I suggest checking out some of the collections assembled on smashingmagazine.com, webcreme.com, and vandelaydesign.com.
