    Even when there are clearly more than seven segments?

      You're right, this one has nine, I didn't look very closely. I guess you could still call them SSD-like...

  #22 B: Use skeleton (getskeleton.com). It will save you time. This will give you more time for 1-20.

The Subscribe by Email floater is what drove me batty, on a laptop. Stuff floating to the left not apparently docked to anything should move when I scroll! Edit: it's a good list, though. Content > presentation, when it comes to actual reading material.

They are still annoying even on a 27" iMac. ARGH! Don't make your site so non-standard in a bad, pointless way. Your content is or should be the most important part. The rest of your blog should be subservient to the content.

Also, if you're going to make a gimmicky website like that, at least have the decency to have something happen when I click on the door or the fan or whatever.
