My goal with the website was to give readers a break from that. It should feel refreshing to read site after all of the other blogs a person had just read. It delivers all of the most important news in a clean and simple way..
What it delivers for me, on a maximized browser on a 1600x1200 screen, is three images at the top with fuzzy, barely-readable white-on-semi-transparent black headlines overlaid on the images. And a huge headline and video window for the first story. I have to go crazy on the scroll wheel to see anything else.
Frankly, it looks like a parking page.
What is your site about? Is there some unifying theme? Or just random tech new articles? Did you write the articles? If not, where do they come from?
I guess I just don't get it. There are a zillion general tech-news blogs out there, and maybe a half-dozen that actually matter to anybody, with a zillion "me-toos". Why another?
BTW, I'm not a designer. Just reacting as a user.
Now, at least you are avoiding going the other way and being TOO cluttered. But you've taken "simplicity" to an unusable extreme. I used to read news.com every day. They did a horrible, cluttered re-design maybe a year ago and I haven't been back since.
FWIW, I get almost all my tech news from Zite on my iPad any more. I don't even use websites directly for tech news. Zite (and similar apps) is the new RSS, but a lot better. (I went the RSS route for a while, then discovered what everybody else discovered. It's all the same news, over and over.)
