It now displays six full entries, and then four excerpts. I still have some work to do on the excerpt display, so for the time being I just have it linearly instead of floated to the side.<br /><br />And you don't like "in which"? Heh, six it is then.

I would like to see six posts on the main page.<br /><br />OK, so that was rather arbitrary, I guess what I'm getting at is this:<br /><br />I don't know about you, but I skim read quite a few blogs for posts of interest, so the fewer clicks I need to make the happier I am with an interface. Your new one does list the newest posts, but the reader is required to guess which might be of interest from the header and the pithy description, and then click - it kills off my style of blog reading. Six. I would like to see six posts on the main page.

For instance, the smaller headlines for the excerpts don't display at all, nor does the meta information for those excerpts. I'll have to look into it.
