Thank alot for the feedback I really appreciate it. Looks like that categories is a recurring theme. I need to work on that.

Its funny when I was working with the blog designer on this blog’s layout, I never considered people consider categories as a glossary or a table of contents/chapters.

Hmm some things to think about.

Frequent posting is overrated and I think SEO “experts” are doing readers a disservice by circulating this mode of thinking. The fact is people do have lives offline and it is daunting to leave a site for a few days only to come back to a 100 posts waiting to be read. So I think 3-4 posts a week is great.

I think the reader questions is a great idea. I think that will definitely increase participation in your blog.

I think the Adsense is done tastefully. I don’t mind ads on blogs but I do mind when they are in your face or disrupt the content.

The blog loaded up just fine for me and I was able to navigate around with no problems. I would say, though, that I think you need a little bit more color but that is my personal preference.

You are tough! Heh-heh, but load times are a concern to me and I will do my best to keep the load times short.

Also thanks for the great suggestion on the content and the design process of my past projects. They are good ones and I’ll see if I can get something going on that. The conversations with engineers, sales, and marketing also make great post ideas.

The Unp3 players are on the way! So sorry I had been tied up with trips and work. But you are right, if I have a regular feature like the Unp3 project I should keep it going and provide updates for my readers.

Well looks like reader’s questions gets a tick of approval so do stay tune for more of such content.

Thanks for your feedback and please keep in touch.

The bottom of the page is the sort of the “more about me” section. The portfolio information is there actually for information and reputation but not for selling services. Also I blog at this site under a pseudonym, as the blog has no connection to my employer.

However it is not too difficult to find out who I am in real life, so I may drop the pseudonym some day. I actually have another portfolio website that’s open to personal contacts. So its not too important to have my portfolio up top.

You are right about the Adsense thus its my personal policy not to put ads within posts. But as the ads positions are not optimized perhaps it makes sense to drop it as the ad revenue is actually very low, and if it helps improve reader experience.

Thanks for the suggestion on the categories. Let me take a look at it.

2) Content so far is great. I’d love even more insight on working with other designers and/or managing a team’s creative direction. It would also be cool to see some multi-part articles about projects you, you’re team, or colleagues are working on (past or present)…show us progression from initial sketches to the finished project on the shelf. Talk about your conversations and interactios with engineers, marketing people, graphic designers, executives, etc. It would be cool to follow something over the course of an entire year as you work on it. Of course, some stuff you might not be able to show until you’re all done with it, in which case you’d have to write the articles and save them for when the info is declassified.

…And where the heck are the Un-p3 players? If you don’t finish them soon, you’re going to force me to give money to your friends at Apple for an iPod Shuffle.

3) This sounds great. ; )

4) I dig it. Let the users generate the content.

5) I have slow load times frequently at work (big corporate uplink of some sort) and home (fiber optic). Nothing too bad, but longer then you’d expect from a mostly-text website. Once in awhile the site doesn’t work at all…in a great while. Fix it or I’m outta here.
