Used the opportunity of working with Alex to update the site yesterday. You will notice a few things:

• Updated side bar: ads are now gone from the side, and shown inline after the first post, but only for the most insecure browser on the planet. The feeds heading was changed to subscriptions, to be easier to understand for the non-tech folk, along with a better description of the feed. I removed the search button, since just pressing enter will work just fine. The calendar got a style uplift (better whitespace and a colored header), and all li tags actually are contained by ul tags now (doh!)
• Post titles are a bit bigger, so they should be easier to read/get your attention.
• Each day now gets the desk calendar treatment. A box that looks like a desk calendar shows up on the right side of the content area.
• Categories are now called ‘tags’ in the post area, to be more ‘hip’
• Removed the feedmap badge, since it was slowing down the rendering of the site.

I am sure there are more little tweaks, but that is all I can remember for now. I will be updating my Wordpress install with a few plugins to help me out in the near future, and I will let you know how that goes as well.
