New Look for Awilum.com

I’ve updated the look and added a couple features to this website so if you normally read the posts through a reader and you have a few seconds to kill check out the site and let me know what you think.

  1. Hi Charles – I really like what you’ve done to the place! The only thing I find mildly off-putting is that gently, insistently, but ultimately annoyingly animated arrow in the SlideShare widget. There was a reason why “blinking” HTML was universally castigated! :)

  2. My reader (NetVibes) can toggle back and forth between “feed view” and “view as website.” In “feed view,” I get text-only, and only the first 55 words or so followed by {…}. In website-view, all the features of the site seem to come through just fine. Nice look!

  3. Charles: The look is nice overall. I appreciate the minimalistic approach. however, the only problem I see is that your actual blog-entry window is pretty narrow. I’m personally not a fan of the long, narrow window of text. I’d prefer it to by about 30% wider. I’d also have to agree with David on the constantly blinking arrow. It continually draws the eye, distracting the reader from the blog text itself.
