I decided to redesign the site once again to accommodate the growing sidebar content on the page. Sidebar content is all that stuff on the right-hand side of the blog that helps readers navigate the site and partake of additional news feeds.

However, I really liked the way the site looked and thankfully, the original designer, Will Wilkins, who made the old Moo-Point theme made something that looked similar to it but with added columns for more sidebar content. The new theme is called “IAMWW w2 DnD”. I think the site is a lot cleaner looking as a result and there’s even some popup goodness. If you click on the top right link that says “Browse”, a little popup display pops up and you can see all my posts listed by category on the site.

Because the comments section underneath a post is so much less cluttered, that meant I can reintroduce the post ratings system that we used to have on this blog in 2006. Go ahead and rate away!

I also am doing some SEO management for the blog now that I found out a little bit more about the meta description tags and how they should be unique for each post.

Also, if you do decide to click on a title for the post, you’ll eventually see a “related items” section that will automagically find similar posts on the blog.

I hope you like the changes! Feel free to add comments — I’m open to tweaking the design further.

    Ok, ok, a lot of you didn’t like the redesign. Can you tell me what it was that you didn’t like? BTW, from a site traffic perspective, it’s been pretty good. Pageviews and time spent on the site are up and so are click through rates for the ads. To me, it’s successful but apparently people here don’t think so. Help this brotha out! I wanna know what would make like this redesign!
