I'd rather smaller lines for each story. I can scroll in and out if I want it bigger. I'd also like to see a different font used. I don't like the logo placement as its distracting and in the way.
The London site isn't minimal. It looks distractingly busy and over-designed.
Unimpressed by the content too, but I think that's maybe more a function of the infamous forgettability of the Shoreditch scene. (I find it hard to get excited about startups that help you get your ironing done. But maybe that's just me.)
