Keep on reporting stuff that you find interesting. Especially non dinosaurian stuff. It's easy enough to keep up with dinosauria via DML but it's easy to miss some really interesting papers that does not concern dinosaurs. Like the one you posted about the undulatory locomotion of that scinc(?).
Without you mentioning it in your blog I would propably missed it all together.

Well, that's the type of content I'd like to bring more of to this site, the things that people would otherwise miss out on...

Thanks for the kind words!

Nick, I'd like to see more "rundown" posts of obscure or poorly-known non-dinosaurian diapsids. This is the place I come to learn about crocs and their cousins, because honestly nobody else on my blogroll covers this stuff (except Darren...rarely). So keep on doing what you're doing. I just wish you'd do it more often! :-D

I should talk...

Thanks, so you feel greater frequency would be better?

Is there anything about the site's layout that you don't like or would want to see changed? Would you find it very annoying if I changed the way my posts were organized so that it'd show a brief 50-100 word preview on the main page and a link to the full article?

I would like to get a better feed gadget/widget for comments and Twitter, but I don't know where to look.

Well, as to formatting issues, I'd just plain get rid of the right sidebar showing reader updates. It crowds the page. None of your posts are long enough to warrant an "after the jump" kind of format (that's not a knock against) unless you start posting more images.
