This evening at midnight Eastern Daylight Time, this blog will begin to move to a new hosting site. For a smooth transition, please don’t comment from then until 2am EST.
Wow. Missed the changes. I'll throw in my opinion about the layout.
I agree with the others that the sidebar layout isn't visually great. I'm noticing, though, that I'm experiencing a lot less reading fatigue due to the increased type size (and thus words per line.) I disagree with the people who want more of the screen "used" if they want to use it for words. (Solution, people, is shrink your window. Less empty space. There.)
Also, there are some people like me who read this site primarily on a mobile phone web browser (on the train, etc.), so if you end up changing the columns, I'd really appreciate it if you're aware about the order in which they'll appear when linearized. It sucks having to scroll past blogroll/menu to get to the content.
I'm mostly concerned about ruthlessly getting information from this site, so perhaps you're best off not having me as your web designer if your concern is making it friendly to newcomers. :)
