If anything, you could make them more prominent. For example, the Recent Posts header and the other headers could be even darker. The site links near the top could be a bit bigger.

It seems like you’re on top of it and maybe the fact that you’re getting content suggestions is evident that your longtime readers (I’m new) are now satisfied on this issue.

I’m certainly satisfied!

• the left column sidebar is too thin, so it doesn’t provide for easy headline reading, and it’s easy to completely miss the module for recent posts around the network. that’s probably the bulk of the problem.

• separate modules for each network site (always displayed or randomly selected) would help emphasize each sites specific topical nature

• as a random aside, i’m not sure i get why broadband, mobile, voice are gigaom topics, but video (newteevee) and lifestyle(web worker?) are independent web sites. so the double navigation at the top kinda throws me, and i don’t click on it usually…

hope this helps, and keep it up.

Since we last met, we’ve evolved our widgets to what we call a “vortex” for just this purpose. We just launched one for TechCrunch to resolve with a similar issue – consolidate multiple blogs to a single interactive module showing the most recent content. Users can tune it and copy it straight to their Netvibes or iGoogle page. We will be unveiling the iJ.am “configurator” at the TechCrunch party 7/27 which will enable anyone to create their own. Happy to create one for you in the mean time – give me a call.

Om, you may want to consider building a widget that pulls together content from all your blog networks and displaying them prominently on the front page (go to http://www.realtimematrix.com to see an example of a Techcrunch vortex powered by ij.am.). Let me know if we can help pull something like this together for GigaOM.

A diggnation-like podcast that sums up of what has happened throughout the network during the week would be much appreciated!

I have been trying to show case what’s on our other sites. Basically where I don’t write as much, but other writers are doing a bang up job. People have told me that, “oh we didn’t know that foundread.com or webworkerdaily.com were part of your network.” So that is something i am trying to fix.

Secondly, I have to admit that i tend to default to the areas of my strength than rest of the market, which i guess is an effective way of dealing with lack of time.

thanks for the feedback. i have been trying to write on different topics, though have stayed away fro SAAS/Enterprise Software type stuff, since those are areas where I have no obvious strength.

Regardless, I think you guys do have a good point, and Ramana thanks for reminding me about the reviews. I want to do those, just sometimes put them on the back burner.

I will try and be more “timely” as they say.

Do you have something more specific to work with than a vague general statement like “you guys are not exposing the network content as effectively as you should” which doesn’t really tell you much?

4.You have no product review section. At least one review per week in a specific product category.

5.Your home page in the morning should clearly give all the latest news in the market place with your own twist.

1. You should cover Partnerships, M&A and Money tree every week as part of afternoon/evening updates.
