The sidebar, permanently-fixed and consuming more than half of the screen, makes this blog completely and utterly unusable on a mobile device - that is, unless you're attempting to find the author's twitter or send him an e-mail.
EDIT: Additionally, this concept is already implemented rather well via various[0][1][2] browser extensions.
Added some responsive CSS for mobile users. Thanks for reminding me.
Originally, my idea was to make this into a Chrome extension, but reading through the documentation it didn't seem possible to make text in the omnibox clickable. Very impressed with the Firefox addons though. Thanks for the links!
I like the concept, but I think I would rather use this feature by holding control/command or middle clicking, which would make my action to navigate upward more deliberate.
