    Feed and Index tags are confusing - 'Index' likely doesn't mean much to webignorants, and to non-webignorants, it's mistakable for 'home'.

    I was hoping for some kind of swish JS mechanic to deal with the Horizontal scroll. tbh, I don't think it works well the way you've got it, without. I was actually disappointed when I realised I had to scroll manually. ACTUALLY DISAPPOINTED, _salisae_.

    Personally, I like the vertical scrollwheel functionality, but it presumes too much and should, imo, be backed up with an idiot-proof JS hint of some sort - either an icon, or a rollover scroll or something.

    Seeing so much work side by side means I can't really focus on any one aspect - I kind of like the overall thinking behind the layout, but can't help but feel that (again) some JS highlighting of on-focus sections / or / darkening of non-focus sections would allow me to appreciate your work more.

    Why is the About Me section only on one column? Is it so you can maintain the scroll mechanic? Can't help but think that even a hint of the existing column structure there wouldn't go amiss.
