    Hello,

    Firstly, I would like to wish the whole community a Happy New Year :).

    Second, I would appreciate it if you guys could review my latest Gadgets Blog.

    The logo is being done by a professional, so that will be changing soon. Apart from the logo, is there anything that needs to be added/changed/tweaked?

    On the far right hand side, there is a 125 x 500 pixel banner. I need something to fill up that area, as I want to remove that banner. Any ideas?

    Your suggestions / feedback is very much appreciated.

    Thanks,

    Yah, professional is the word. To replace the banner you don't like, come up with another one and a link to other web site of yours if you got more. Or just go for an affiliate link, you never know where the money can come from.

    My first impression is, the presentation of the whole website is very neat and it's good to see each post come with a picture. Navigation need some work as you could add more relevant categories and there's no archive/timeline page for me to refer to your older posts. You need to add more content to it as well as some categories are still empty. It is easy for me to search for the article I might be interested in since it has search engine form on the site. It looks good on my Google Chrome browser as well although I think I could benefit from a one size larger font. You might want to include FB comment plugin on your site as well because I do find commenting using FB plugin is convenient as I am 24 7 logged into my FB.

    Yes I know, I am getting a new logo for the site soon.

    Thanks for the valuable input. I kind of like the FB comment plugin, as I've seen it on a number of sites already. Will look into the other suggestions you made.

    Thanks,
