You mightn't like the high contrast starkness of version 7.0, but you have to admire the rigorous thought and planning that Khoi Vinh has put into the latest iteration of his personal blog.
An exercise in grids to the nth degree, Khoi has a knack for making tight hierarchical layouts. I was a little underwhelmed on my first visit, but as you browse through the site his personal touches such as focus area highlighting and imaginative information design (check the monthly archives) come together to make a well executed site.

something about this site just screams out at me, in a very good way.
I lurve it... I think it is excellent, and nothing I have ever seen before on the web. Give this site a thumbs up, people, it deserves it

This site is superb.
Bold, unapologetic, technically sound and great example of how grids can be used to great effect online.
What may not be so obvious is the typographic structure. Great use of heading and subhead relationships. This is strengthened by, quite possibly, the best access structure i've seen in any blog.

Simple, Neat, Elegant, and in one word Beautiful.
The image on about section screams telling me why you love to use black and orange and high contrast pallete.
Congrats.
