You're right, the academic homepage style has always been a major inspiration, including during this project. (It was one part of refusing to use a more robust Javascript solution to get link underlines which clear descenders.) I still find the [Prof. Dr. Style](http://contemporary-home-computing.org/prof-dr-style/ http://contemporary-home-computing.org/prof-dr-style/) compelling and think about ways to emulate it. I'm convinced there's a sweet spot which retains the academic homepage "feel" while solving some fundamental readability issues like width, whitespace, and contrast. I think of it as one step of complexity "up" from bettermotherfuckingwebsite (but no more!).
