AlmostFit is a relatively new project for me, but it seems to be doing really well thanks to places like this one (IowaAvenue.com) on the Web. I was particularly excited this evening because I got an email from Guy Kawasaki himself today letting me know that AlmostFit has been accepted to the list of sites on his new venture, Alltop. AlmostFit is listed under the Health section.

If you are not familiar with Guy (or why this would be important to me), he is one of the original Apple guys, and has done a bunch of amazing projects since then, inspired thousands of people, and helped an equal number to reach for their goals. His blog is also really excellent, particularly if you want to feed that little inner geek hiding and typing in the dark recesses of your mind. For me, the geek suit is on the outside.

Here’s a description of Alltop from Guy’s blog:

“A good metaphor is that Alltop is an “online magazine rack” that displays the news from the top publications and blogs. Our goal is to satisfy the information needs of the 99% of Internet users who will never use an RSS feed reader or create a custom page. Think of it as “aggregation without the aggravation.” The easiest way to understand the value of Alltop is to try it [...]“

The best part for me is it is listed alongside some really big mainstream health sites like WebMD, CNN Health, and so forth, so it could mean some really good exposure. At any rate, I’m really excited about it, and realized that I needed to do a little tweaking on the site to improve the presentation.

If you have a spare minute or two, would you mind taking a look at the new header image and such of AlmostFit and give me your thoughts? Does it seem OK? Does it feel too, I dunno…Fancy? Thoughts? Suggestions?
