Starting a consulting business. Can I get some feedback on my new site?

This is all relatively minor, presentation-related stuff:

- Parts of your website are unreadable when I tile my browser (Firefox) so it takes up 1/3 of the horizontal screen space and 100% of the vertical screen space. The "Open Source Freebies" button is truncated and I can't scroll (not even autoscroll) to see the rest of it.

- You should make sure your text has proper grammar. For comments on the internet, nobody really gives a shit, but you're selling a product. You want people viewing your site to see you as a professional, and little things like typos or grammar errors chip away at that.

- The dedication to _why's guide, while nice, doesn't belong in the "Hire Me" section. Consider making a new section for it or something.

Will update this list with more things when I think of them.

Thanks for the firefox heads up. I'll look into that. I'm embarrassed about the grammar issues. Two people have now commented about that. I have been writing a lot of the copy late at night. (part of me was expecting nobody to actually see the site for a while, too. A "launch" of a consulting site is usually 10-15 visits, in my mind)
