    Although overall, it's good, I think more can be done to improve it further by changing to 3 columns layout. I don't know maybe that would help because as I can see both columns seem to stretch very long.

    From overview, it is a good design .
    The logo should be center align in vertical direction , otherwise it looks too much space in header .

    It's not a bad design, but your header is really blank with the exception of your title and logo. The whole right side of the header is extremely boring.

    Your menu bar I find appropriate, it's a bit empty but there's no reason to add extra links if they're not needed.

    Your blue update section is a bit taller then it needs to be therefore there's some blank blue space underneath the actual content, you should shorten it up just a tad.

    I like the thing you've done for the date with the sticky note, it's sweet. One thing I think I don't like is your "rating" part. When I hovered over it to rate the page, it showed the text "1 star", "2 stars", etc and it made all the content below it shift down until I took my mouse off of it. You should figure out how to make it so it doesn't do that, it's not appealing. You should also space the area more from one post to the other, the headers of the posts are too close (for my taste) to the meta data of the previous post. Maybe just a few more pixels space would help.

    Your sidebar looks okay, i don't like the "navigation" area and how when i click on certain tabs it expands that area. I also don't like how you've got your ads (which are directly below that section) centered. You seem to have a lot of ads, that's not extremely appealing either. Maybe you should cut them down to just a few that are the most profitable.

    I don't like the category section of your footer. There's too much blank space at the top and too much blank space between each link. It causes a whole lot of un-needed blank space. The footer section below that has the same main color of the body background but I can still see the border. Either lose the border or change the background color up a little.

    Your about section is blank with the exception of your "RSS feed" section. Your "contact" section should feature a form of some sort and maybe a little information on why someone might want to contact you. It's pretty blank. Your "submit" page has all of its information way too spaced out, and i have to scroll a lot to see it all. The same goes for your "subscribe" section.

    It looks ok. I would make the recent posts on the column. It is rather annoying all the way up there.
