I’ve seen and gone through this site. I must say this is a thing of beauty. Although the ideas is nothing new, i’ve seen it done countless of times. The execution is what gets me. The news use of grayscale throughout the site and the intense attention to details which was evidence in their use of typography.
Thanks for the feedback Benga. I agree the site lacks a concept and some of the tactics used are not ground breaking but as you pointed out, it was our attention to the detail that really makes this site shine. Too many times attempts at these design fail due to those simple steps.
While it’s not perfect even now, we will continue to make future enhancements. As Jamie C said, their are some areas to improve with things such as rollovers, some browser compatibilities and in general getting some more content hooked up.

Benga creative
Looks good.
There seem to be some padding/margin issues with the input fields in Chrome.
I would have also liked to see hover states on the buttons.

Thanks!
I think the top portion is too large, just by a little.
On my macbook it is just below the fold….
