#2Yeah, a couple things:
- Your site is too wide. On my 15" powerbook, with safari 4 maximized, there's still horizontal scroll.
- Speaking of scroll, the individual scroll bars for each column seem to run over some of the text.
- The text is a bit hard to read, and everything looks a bit cluttered. I can't browse the headlines in comfort.
- I'm not quite sure how your stories are ranked or organized. Right now, it just looks like a random assortment of stories scattered all over the screen. There's no metric for me to rate the stories, not even a continuous time line.
Clean design overall. Nice job.
EDIT: Ah, I had to scroll down to find that the different columns were from different sources. I'd suggest moving the source names up to the top.

#3That's a really nice, clean design, and it's original, too! I like it a lot. If the headings were just a little bit bolder, it might be easier to read - but the fonts you chose really make the page look "clean".
The columns were a little confusing - I wasn't sure what the different ones were for, and the scroll bars overlapped the text very slightly (I'm using Firefox).
Overall, really nice design!

Thanks.
-Columns: The titles of the columns are on the bottom (Needs to be changed). -Scrollbars: Did not see that, because I use safari. :)

Thanks for the comments.

#6It looks clean. The one thing I would change is the way the page is loading. Right now the header is loaded first and then I see gray body and need to way few seconds for whole content to load. Maybe you could load full GUI first and then fade in separate news? Overall looks pretty cool!

Not clean enough for me. Or did I mix up clutter & clean?

#8I see nothing in lynx.
Re: Personal site (URL flux) Feedback appreciated
#9It seems to just be a mash-up of a few RSS feeds? Is there anything above and beyond that or is that it?
If that is it, what are we supposed to comment on? the design?

#10- As kyro said, it's a bit too wide.
- The logo could stand to be a bit crisper. Maybe take a look at some of the techniques from http://psd.tutsplus.com/designing-tutorials/elements-of-grea...
- I'm kinda stupid, but I didn't realize the scroll bars were scroll bars until I saw someone else's comment. Also frustrating that they seem to work with mousewheel only.
- As azrealus said, it looks strange while you're loading up. I'd hide everything until it's all loaded and show it at once.
Good start, keep it up.
