    Nice design but it could have been better specially the header part
    Frankly the speaking the Color of the Site is no match with the Theme of the site (i.e Technology/Internet)
    Green, Silver or use some Tech color for the site, the current theme is no where related to the site
    also the name of the - Banarasi what does that mean ?

    I like the design but it does look slightly 'farmhouse kitchen' in nature - not sure that's the best theme to use for a tech blog.

    I love the design but the colors are a bit too bright on the eyes. I agree with the other who said it does not match up with a tech related site. Looks like a nice design for gardening or home blog. Other wise it has good content and is laid out nicely.

    Good luck with the blog !

    I would change the flowery theme to something more techy so it relates to your topic better.

    Very impressive design, but probably not the best one to choose for a tech blog

    It's better but I still don't think that theme is the best choice - still doesn't look techy enough in my opinion.
    Writing is fine - succinct.

    Great L & F, easy to read, nice white space. What does the site title mean? The one suggesting i have is to have a more descriptive title or sub heading that tells new readers your content focus.

    The title means one from Banaras a holy city in India :)
