> They say it is overly simplistic Got same criticism from Fortune when their reviewed my site, too many basic tables full of data, not enough bells and whistles. Too much content, not enough flash. > Also it is basic html and fits on any page width. Makes senses. I have basic table (600 wide) menus at the top and bottom of every page in the exact same location so one can get around. The middle data tables are 99% width, so they fill up the screen at all resolutions. > maybe have a back-end SQL database and make the site searchable If I had to do it all over again, that would be the way to go. I'd love to provide a database when one could get "all Canadian companies mining for copper in Turkey" or other interesting combinations. I started it in 1995 handcoding HTML in Wordpad, and I still do it that way. Too busy updating the wheel to find time to reinvent it !
