it is all blue...

This is where our community discusses almost anything! While we're mainly a Cambodia expat discussion forum and talk about expat life here, we debate about almost everything. Even if you're a tourist passing through Southeast Asia and want to connect with expatriates living and working in Cambodia, this is the first section of our site that you should check out. Our members start their own discussions or post links to other blogs and/or news articles they find interesting and want to chat about. So join in the fun and start new topics, or feel free to comment on anything our community members have already started! We also have some Khmer members here as well, but English is the main language used on CEO. You're welcome to have a look around, and if you decide you want to participate, you can become a part our international expat community by signing up for a free account.

not for forums in my opinion.

What do u consider a Khmer market? Lucky's/ the one in the Aeon mall? Easy to find everything, wide aisles, well laid out/organized (Both very western ) or Russian Market? no place to walk, hot , dirty, a mess unless ur khmer an understand how things are organized

AS far as seo goes i will take NO negative space,
but i prefer the terms, clean, easy to navigate ---wins every time

PS: we both now we see EVERYTHING from opposite sides
khmer market i mean orrusey/russian. pretty up front organization in those. most of the same things all grouped together right on top of one another. luckys would be a western supermarket.

In this case at least my side is the one with multiple usability studies behind it while yours is the side of wanting what you want the way you want it, everyone else be damned. and from an SEO perspective the idea of just cramming a page with as much content as possible is quite 1997 of you. spiders now take into consideration readability and usability by human standards in their weighting algorithms. Negative space is valuable space. Read the article if you haven't... I'm going to save keystrokes and not repeat it. Though I'm still pretty sure you always take the side opposition to me simply because I was the one who stated the thing... you've got a hard on for riding my ass pretty much constantly on here and I've come to the conclusion it's the only real reason you come.

funny part about your clean, easy to navigate statement was that the first 10 people (non technical people mind you) I showed this too's first reactions were all... literally all... "wow, really clean".

:please:
You have a really high opinion of yourself;
In a nation run by swine, all pigs are upward-mobile and the rest of us are fucked until we can put our acts together: not necessarily to win, but mainly to keep from losing completely. HST

As one of the beta testers I'm not sure how offended to be at that.

I like the new skin, by the way.

you weren't one of the first 10.... ;-)

there were almost all non CEO members. i wanted input from people not tainted by a fear of change.

color issue is now fixed, and i have begrudgingly upped the font sizes for those who need glasses.
