Blog design

By Elie

We’ve changed the design of our blog to incorporate it more fully within the main GiveWell site.

If you read this blog through RSS you shouldn’t notice any changes.

Please let us know if you have any problems.

Big improvement, in general, though there are still glitches.

I don’t remember how it was before, but to reply to a post (as the first poster), you now have to click on the “No Comments” link, which seems obscure, to say the least.

Clicking on the big Givewell logo from the blog just refreshes the blog page - IMO, it should take you to the home page of the main GiveWell site.

Minor nitpick - I miss the big lines between blog posts; currently, it’s harder to see at a glance where one ends and the next begins.

(For the record, I basically never like site redesigns, I just get used to them.)

Also, I’ve got a widescreen monitor (1920×1080) and the whitespace at the edges of the screen bothers me a bit; unlike before, the blog text doesn’t stretch to fill the available space in the window.

I think you should reduce the number of blog entries on the main blog page - the scrollbar is tiny at the moment.
