I'll throw two of mine into the mix as well.

Blog: https://axiomatic.neophilus.net Photoblog: https://odyssey.neophilus.net

Particularly happy about the way the photoblog turned out. I think the interactivity of the globe, showing you where photos come from give it an immersive touch that isn't in your face.

http://kbhat.rocks is my landing page. Rather than dump all my info on this page, it links to my blog and other things I'd like to share. I got this up after getting my job offer in place, but for now I'm happy with it. One thing that's missing is my resume, but for me that's application-specific and I'd rather have people ask for it than display a fixed version. Feel free to critique, HN!

I like it, simple, (obviously) quick to load, and easy to visually follow as well.

One piece of browser feedback: on my Firefox, when I zoom in above 100% (to even just 120%), part of the text (say, your email ID) vanishes beneath the page, and scrolling only scrolls your image on the right, not the text.

And talking about email, it might be better to move the email address up a bit, perhaps after the blog link. A lot of folks coming to your personal page are probably going to want to contact you as the next step.

(As a subjective comment, I'm not a fan of the background colour, makes the page feel a bit dull. )

By the way, are you standing on top of an electric transformer in the photo? If so, why???

warning: posting my own website https://glebbahmutov.com/

Has links to blog / slides / github and list of GitHub projects with search. Allows people and myself to quickly find something. Getting recruiters' pitches (and occasional hand crafted emails to join teams) every day.
