taking frontend framework advice from a website that is arguably uglier and more poorly laid out than the bulk of geocities pages is a tough pill to swallow.

Aside from the Jakob Nielsen-y vibe to the color scheme (intentional), it's not that much different than any other developer blog out there -- but if that's the angle you want to take to discredit what I am saying, fine.

> if that's the angle you want to take

I don't think its some "angle" out of left field. Its a valid point.

Well, to be frank, I honestly don't know what to think. I've had people telling me it looks great, people telling me it looks awful -- it does look amazing to me: http://imgur.com/a/yMTz8

Having said that, I'll definitely work out a update that's readable to wider audience.

Sorry, but that's really ugly.

It's not that ugly. The layout is ok, the typography is fine. It's just that yellow color that's not the best. As far as the rest it's fine.

I've since updated the color scheme.

May be developers should standarize in Jekyll for our blogs.

Not that I think it is an important issue or anything. I read everything via Pocket.
