Looking through people's work in my industry, I found that some of them use Flash(like: http://jaysportfolio.com/), others HTML (like: http://www.cameronmiyasaki.com/ ) and some use both (like: http://guerrilladigital.cc/portfolio.php)! Most of them have a link to their blog where you can see more clearly what kind of person they are. Many have their work linked to the website where it is displayed. Others have their personal website. Very few had related links. Almost all had a link that you can download their resume. I like when they make their portfolio in a size that I can see it all in my screen and don't have to scroll down (like: http://seangresens.com/index1.html). It gets too confusing when you have to scroll down while there is motion on the page!
Trends I've noticed:
1. Use of black and grey
2. Use of Flash/motion(the most impressive portfolios use Flash)
3. Music (you can chose to turn the music on and off)
4. Blogs (they include a link to their blog in their portfolios)
5. Resume (they let you download their resume)
