I need to redesign

This theme is old as hell and crappy.

I do a bad job of organizing my posts into categories, which makes it even more useless.

Here’s some things I think I need:

A wider content area.

I currently have to crop images significantly to fit in the content block.  It is also a strange width for including videos.  The fixed width of the current site is a 2004 web style.

Mobile Theme

Since my recent growth in readership (I’ve triggered my Google Analytics alert of 20+ unique visitors 3 times now), I know people everywhere can’t get enough of my content.  Is there a mobile version of the admin interface?  Or a Windows Mobile app for posting/managing content?

Suggested by: @bofe.

More useful navigation.

My categories block is stupid.  I could probably do a better job of categorizing, though, now that I have a decent sample of content to group by.

Recent / Most popular posts block.

Currently, there is no cross promotion of other posts within any given post, unless I manually linked to one.  That’s a problem if I actually wanted to encourage people to read my blog, which I do.

About me page.

I do a poor job of organizing information about who I am.  I currently do that on purpose.  This blog is barely anonymous.

More dynamic meta content.

My blogroll is pretty sad.  I added those two links approx. two years ago.  Bofe quit his blog and Dave Hayes posts a monster blog post tri-annually.

This site needs a lot of work.
