Keep up the good work.

Yup no problem. I will ship tomorrow along with something I sold on ebay. I live in Illinois, so it might get there in a day or so. For everyone else, stick around I might be giving away an old P4 computer =)

A couple of things to improve upon would be your posts. It might help if you set a periodic schedule, say once every two days. This way you have new content for your viewers, such as myself, to read.

Another suggestion would be rotating layouts. This is just my personal opinion, but seeing the same layout day after day gets slightly dull. It would be spectacular to see a layout change every couple weeks or month.

That’s all, I hope you all had a great Christmas.

Improvements?
1.) I think the general layout is fine, but the color scheme could be somewhat darker (maybe darker blue like at the very top?), or possibly find another way to better define the colums / sections.

2.) This one is real picky but the tabs ‘Home, Send A Tip, Contact, and About’ are nearly indisdinguishable.

All in all, a great site.

I’ve known your site for a while now, from Dave’s blog and IRC (gogogo!)

1. A different theme, I don’t really like this one
2. Tech Reads? Heh. Maybe a different name? :P

I found your site through google looking at skype related articles. I searched ’skype’ and ‘landline’.

Anyways, you have some very nice posts here.

My comments on the site are:
1. Get rid of the ‘related posts’ bit under each post. Very distracting I find. Perhaps add it when you click through on the post but not on the front page.

2. And yeah, as mentioned above, spelling and grammar are important. Try and keep the errors to a minimum!

Regards,

Stijn.

I found your site through the Digg story as well. Nothing like a Digg story to get some traffic moving!

A couple very minor things to improve:

1) In the original post I read, all of the “‘” (apostrophe) characters are displayed in my browser as “’”. I am using Firefox 2.0 on Windows XP Pro SP2. Not sure how to fix this but I’m sure Google would provide the answer.

2) I found it a little annoying that when I rolled over the heading links on the right hand column (Archive, Tags, etc), you have the CSS set up to put a dashed line underneath the div tag. This is a cool effect but in my browser everything got moved down by the height of the line (very slightly). Just a minor thing but I have seen this same effect accomplished on other sites without bumping all of the content below.

Other than those issues (which are very picky) I think you have a great site here!

Thanks,

Paul

1) The font color you use (the blue) is hard on the eyes.

2) Spelling/grammar issues. They take quite a bit away from your good content.

Two suggestions for your website:

1) Make your images and screenshots able to scale to the web browser. I am using firefox, and a large screen, although the images seem to extend more than the middle columb.
Example from a resent blog:

Solution:
I quickly looked at your source, and my suggestion is instead of using DIVs, make CELLs. That way your artwork can act indepenently of your pre-defined website structure.

2) Use Italics when refering to a product or nameing something a reader may not initialy know of. This will give you articles more flow. Doing so will allow better skimming for names or words a reader may want to remember or put into a search engine.

I do like the layout, and the colour… especialy the change in colour from post to post. Good job with you site!

The sites not bad. You could make the center column more visible as the center of attention by making the side-bars a bit darker. Or add thin borders to the main body part to set it off from the sides… .
