When I saw your site, I got reading some of the confessions.. and I realized that your site is brilliant! For the same reason that I think I'll randomly go back and see it every once in a while, I think other people would as well. People love to hear secrets, and this just does the job. As far as the design, it's great that is simple, and it should stay that way. I really like that you get right to the content the second you get to the site.. and readers just go on to the next pages and keep reading. Love the site, excellent idea, excellent job.
simple is nice but i think it's a bit too simple, try to work out something. Besides, i would love to see if the visitors can leave some responds as some of the posts are seriously funny
The reason for the comment about it being hard to read is that for some of us "old folks" light on dark is hard due to retinal changes, and as for padding that's just a few pixels between this thing and that thing. Easy fix.
