Nice theme you got there :D

The blog would look nicer with more categories (to balance it from the adsense ads) and a new header design ;)

Header is much too small. Could double it in height.

Could use photos to go with the articles to make it look a bit more interesting on first site.

Also maybe a photo of yourself, as the site is named after you, to personalize the site a bit more.

Hey there coolalex,
That theme works but I would certainly try out some other themes aswell. All your posts are Jul 18th :), maybe change the postmark date for those.
a little larger header would be nice too and like mgrohan said above a pic of urself etc, since this is a blog about your self personalize it to the t!
Nice start, and I like the idea overall! Keep it up, if ya want me to keep reviewing it for ya feel free to pm me!

Looks OK, maybee you should work on a better menu system, something that most blogs lack... It would improve the internal linkstrength.

I agree with akghost, you better change the time stamp for some posts, so you don't have to make a new post for several days :-)
Header can use a lighter color to make it differ with the background.

The black text of your header is hard to read.
You could use something to fill up the 2nd column (categories), as you scroll further down it looks plain.

Also, I don't like how the search box has "I want something" already entered into it, it's better off empty.
