Maybe it's just me, but I couldn't figure out precisely what you guys did within five seconds of looking at the page, and that is for me a turnoff. I think it's part the color scheme, part the in-your-face layout, and part the overwhelming feed on the left side. If I just took a quick glance, I would think this is a blog, not a startup. So you do screencasts? What type of screencasts? If that isn't inherently obvious at the start then a potential customer may feel left in the dark. The only place I can be for sure that these are developer screencasts is the tiny "kickass developer screencasts" text under the logo. Be obvious with what you do! Peepcode (http://peepcode.com/ http://peepcode.com/) is an excellent model for a screencast site. By having "Rails" and "rSpec" in big letters to the right of their logo, I know instantly what they sell. I'm no designer, but that's what strikes me at first glance. What an excellent achievement for a fellow teenager though! (One final tip, make your <title></title> have the words "developer screencasts" in it. It will help make sure people know what you are giving them.)
