Another small UI thing: the choice of large font is welcome, but didn't go as large as I wanted. When I used command-+ on Chrome (Mac) to go a bit larger, I ended up with horizontal scrollbars. This is a pet peeve of mine. Why can't you use percentage measures for the different regions? I don't mind some vertical scrolling, but horizontal is much worse.
Edit: I forgot to say: Nice job overall, despite my nit picking above. Also, where did the name come from?
Edit 2: The title of the news / america section comes out as "Amerika". Is that just a typo, or a political statement? (I've seen that spelling used to imply the U.S. is being taken over by Facists or something.)
