Respect browsers other than your own!
Number one thing to remember when presenting your site to the world is not everyone has the same browser as you. More importantly, not everyone has the same amount of RAM or processor speed that you have.
Whether a site is usable or not goes far beyond a site “worked” for you in Browser A.
I visited a blog today that loaded 50+ two- and three-page articles on the main page. So, a word to the wise, well, and to the blog users *wink* &mash; configure your blog or CMS to deliver a specific number of results per page — something like less than ten is ideal. Unless of course your posts are several pages deep, then you might consider an even smaller amount.
This goes equally for archives. Just because I want to see all 1,000+ of your < insert topic > articles, does not mean I want to see them all on one page.
