   I'd say the only thing that would be very helpful is separating your left column from your main center column a bit more. It's just too close to the content and its a little distracting to the eye. I think that if you make another vertical gray bar, like you have against the left side of the right sidebar, that would be pretty helpful. Increasing the margin wouldn't be a bad idea either.

   Hi. I'm not a WP expert. I like your 3-column fluid layout. I like the percentages of the 3 columns, where the right-column is a bit wider and contains longer lines, while the left column is very skinny and contains only list items. This is where my 1 suggestion comes in: Reduce the amount of "indent" in the left-column list items. It looks like quadruple-space, you could reduce to just double space and it would still look like a nice tree of links, with your different coloring for the headers and the nice small-caps style on the list items (links). You see, I like the fluid layout because it fills up my wide screen, but I also like to test it by squishing my browser skinny. Your left-column kind of breaks when I squish too skinny, probably like 400px that no one uses, but fun for testing a fluid width site.

   Also, why does it say "mini-blog" on the right-column? To me it is a sidebar, part of your whole site, featuring the recent comments (i like the way that part looks) rather than a seperate "mini" blog (?).

   OK I see that now. My first impression, the top-right appeared to be your short-About, rather than an entry that changes with time like a mini-blog. Perhaps I thought this because it is undated; there is only one of them not several in a row; and is 1 paragraph, longer than most 1-line "asides" I have seen. Also, I had a bit of trouble noticing the links where it says PART 1, PART 2... in your mini-blog, you only linked the numbers 1, 2, not the word "PART". Hope this feedback helps.
