A couple of Matt's complaints might apply to the design of your blog: tiny fonts and long lines. Long lines are a readability problem because the eye tends to get lost when jumping from the end of a line to the start of a new one. Small fonts are a problem for obvious reasons.
The very first thing I did when your URL loaded was to increase the browser text size. A good rule of thumb when it comes to typography on the web these days is to be very cautious about setting a font-size smaller than the usual 16px browser default.
- ianstormtaylor 13y agoAgreed. The second thing I would be forced to do it shrink my window so the lines aren't so long.
- edwintorok 13y agoAgreed, when reading a blog with long lines I usually have to resize my browser to keep it readable. If the content is very short (like comments on HN) then I don't mind the long lines though. And small fonts are definitely a problem, I have set my browser's minimum font size to make HN more readable :)
