Your son did a great job. The new site is easy on the eyes and a joy to read.

Carson Fire, I think you’ve assumed the opposite of the issue I raised. I have a super-wide monitor, and on most web pages if I stretch the window out, the text re-justifies outward, and I can read much more without having to scroll the page down as often. But some pages (and Jeff’s new page is this way at the moment) don’t re-justify; the text wrap stays as is and there’s just a lot of blank space on either side. I’m hoping Jeff’s page will do this (as it did before). are you saying that Opera will do it regardless? (I use Safari and sometimes revert to Explorer)

The one thing i never liked about your site, was the format. if not for the better than average content, it would have driven me away.

this is much, much better. i like it.

And the easy anti-spam approach.

I accidentally got to your new site in what must have been mid-transfer ’cause it was butt ugly. Looks nice though, I’ll come in, look around, sit on your chairs and drink your ……..What are you serving?

Looks great Jeff, I am glad you decided to move over to Wordpress .. I did the move in April and will never regret it!

BTW: You must get this plugin: http://wordpress.org/support/topic/30483 for backing up your database.

Jeff, super new format!! I don’t have to type in my name and e-mail anymore after posting just once. It took only a moment to figure out to type the code, really cool.

Jay: Just a little plug for the Opera browser. One of the newer useful features is a “Fit to window width” button for obstinately wide web pages.

Jeff - This looks great, but I’m curious as to why you use a picture of a paper-making machine as opposed to, say, a printing press?

This is excellent. It has a clean and uncluttered look, it’s attractive to the eye and a cinch to navigate. Much prefer to it to the old site. Thanks for providing it.

Looks good, congrats. I (we?) have 2 requests: that clicking on a link opens a new window, and that the width of your page not be fixed, so that those of us with wide monitors have the option of widening the page and scrolling less. Thanks.

You sure this is not a super secret Carl Rove escape hatch from Berniacs?

Nice.

Congrats! Looking good. We all need changes to break the monotony of life.

Re old comments: sometimes you just have to clear the board.

I’ll miss the odd purple type, though.

And the “Recent Comments” plugin is way cool, too. I’m glad you moved to WordPress, it rules.

If you use Spam Karma you don’t need the type in the number junk.

Looks great; tell your son good work. That said, FeedBurner is really annoying. You should host the feed yourself…

Congrats on the move â€” WP is far better than any other backend server.

Except for one you write yourself..

Make sure that you try to keep the RSS feed titled the same…you’ve got 1,650 readers on Bloglines who eventually are going to lose your feed.

gratz on the move. O started playign with WP a couple of days ago, and am seriously considering moving one of my blogs to it. Easier to set up a new one than to move, but I do like the tools available.
