I like the site design...simple, easy, uncluttered.

I'd suggest is to add some content ot the home page....right now, it is just basically a title page - it's of no value really. I have always used home pages as an overview of what is available on the site (as a whole) or for "what's new/interesting" type material.

Also, Id like to see yuour logo included in your page header....it'll help give the site a brand identity (rather than just having text alone).

All in all, good stuff.

You could use the frontpage to show what's current.

I agree, the logo is good to have but now it's being served as the main content (big) with indicators (text/links) stating that this page is not interesting and the action is elsewhere.

Repeat visitors are likely to think the site as 'unchanged' or 'static' and requiring a click (news) to see what's new, on some sites, is one click too many.

Get the content up front and let it show repeat visitors that the site lives.

Also, I noticed the site didn't have META tags yet, so I thought I'd post a link to <a href="http://hotwired.lycos.com/webmonkey/01/23/index1a.html?tw=e-business" target="_blank">this great article</a> on search engine optimization at Web Monkey.

Allright, I've updated the pages and added several new elements.
