Well, off to the salt mine..the big news is that O wants another 100 billion to the IMF to bail out Europe, after the Germans said they didn’t want the EU to do it….
I think this is madness, the Europeans won’t pony up the money, so Obama agrees we will do much of the heavy lifting….again…
Amazing.

Lookin’ good, Barry. Well done to your team.

Barry,
This looks pretty sweet.
I had no problems with the site since I jumped on about 20 minutes ago.

the Euro-thru-IMF ‘bailout’ does, at least, a couple of things: 1. provides add’l monies to cover the FinCos E. Europe losses–think ecoImagination, for starters, 2. keeps “Banker Bailout”, by using the IMF as a cut-out, out of the Headlines, again, 3. gives the ‘cained peep, and their MSM enablers, add’l exposure to the ‘good guys’ at the IMF..4. allows the peep to buy-into the “American Superiority”-archetype, yet again, while getting hosed by the same clique of Fascists that deluded them into believing: “They hate us for our Freedoms”..
It’s a beautiful play, if you’re into that kind of thing..

Hi Barry,
Looks a lot cleaner and stylish. I like the light yellow in the logo and all.
Two things though:
Vertical header takes 25% of my vertical screen space, can’t you narrow it down a inch or so? It seems there is some space under “macro perspectives….” statement. If only, you make the logo just a little smaller, they will all fit nice and tight.
Second, the heading “Macro Perspective on the capital markets, economy, and technology & digital media”
I can’t put my finger on it but there is something bothering me in this phrase, some inconsistency. Maybe, it is the plurals vs singulars. I mean, since you list many items you have perspectives on (mkts, econ, etc.), shouldn’t it read “Macro Perspectives”? Do you have to specify that it is “capital” markets, or it is “digital” media. these days all media is digital. That will make it fit to one line vs. two, which will translate to an even thinner header.
“Macro Perspectives on the Economy, Markets, Media, and Technology”

The header still looks big. cut 40% of it. When the browser is maximized the header takes 25% of the screen.

“Macro Perspective on the capital markets, economy, and technology & digital media”

The header and the logo are still massive. I thought one of the points of the revamp was to tidy up that area?
