1) After connecting to your blog via the dropdown, any attempt to leave it (e.g. dropdown, click “Pharyngula”) takes me to viewing the “100 experiments” entry.
2) Still no “Previous/Next” when viewing a post.
3) No comment count on post summary page.
4) Post summaries are too short. It seems as if the summary length is inflexibly fixed whereas on the old Sb it looked like you could choose the break point.
5) “Last 24 hours” is awful. Old Sb had a summary of all recent posts sorted chronologically. I read several blogs daily (yours among them) and I use the “Last 24hr” to check for interesting posts other than these blogs. The new format has makes that difficult.
6) Comments need a preview button and an allowed HTML help text.

Mayank beat me to it! I think it’s from the remake of “Tinker, Tailor, Soldier, Spy” in which Cumberbatch plays Peter Guillam.

I much preferred the earlier adaptations of Le Carre’s novels.
