LOVE this site, what a terrific community!

Some of us still use the scrolling wheel on their mouse, so here's my humble suggestion:

Under New posts -> recent posts (one of the best parts of this site IMHO)

What would you think of making the default number of posts per page to at least 50. Of course 100 would be much better, or perhaps the technology used on the site makes it possible to have this as an option for those of us who are registered (50, 100, 200, 500 per page, etc.)?

Also, doubling the width of the "title" column would make the page more legible and user-friendly (about 40% of the page is blanl on my wide-screen 22" monitor.)

Don't forget, the more "clicks" one has to go through on a site, the less page 2, 3, 4 etc. are visited! I think these small changes would make using this part of the site much more effective. In turn, it's likely that many more contributions would be made.

Hope this helps!
