- The font looks terrible on my screen. No subpixel hinting or what that fancy stuff is again. I see colours around the characters I think.<p>- The font is big and bold and the lines are long. Hard to read.<p>- The date is in that lunatic format where the date is not clear. Use DMY ordering or write out the month.<p>- Waterloo?<p>- The site could use some layout. I actually thought you were abusing Javascript for that because it looked so plain and so I enabled it to check (with no changes).<p>- The text has a lot of words, no visible structure and a lot of mentions of AWS which to me is not related to the headline. I gave it one quick scanning but could not really figure out what you are on about (the code parts are trivial) so I lost interest.<p>- Are you just trying to get referrers to Amazon? If so, make sure the links are actually visible.
Hey HN, I just finished writing my first real blog post and I was hoping to get some feedback. I would really apprecatie it if you guys could quickly skim through it and give me any comments you have on it. The post itself is just a simple guide on SSH tunnelling through an EC2 machine.<p>Thanks!
What you've wrote is great! Add another post for the prerequisite of the AWS instance and link it there too.<p>Later, include more content on what you want to become an expert and surely the end result will be nothing more than satisfactory! Go ahead.
You may also wish to add -C2qTnN[1]. At least -C2 for compression.<p>[1] <a href="https://calomel.org/firefox_ssh_proxy.html" rel="nofollow">https://calomel.org/firefox_ssh_proxy.html</a>
The page claims to be a "guide". It reads like an article. That is to say, walloftext. If you aim to teach people how to do something with their computer, it is generally good to cut down on the text and include some helpful pictures, information on alternatives, and briefly address common problems.<p>It isn't a bad post, but I don't know that I'd call it a guide.
