I've been chewing over the blogroll problem too. When I tried putting my links on a separate page, no one ever bothered to look. I am thinking that instead I might just show a random few in the sidebar that would change on page refresh. Less clutter, but (presumably) no one's feelings will get hurt.

Merging about, contact and policies never occurred to me. That is a GREAT idea.

Thanks for the reminder, I have just done a bit of spring cleaning (-: For me the look of your blog is up there when it comes to visitor expectations, Plain and simple navigation and less widgets. Your blog is very pleasing to the eye and easy to navigate, with a nice blend of colours.

I disagree about blogrolls. I like some blogs, I think they are related to mine and interesting to my readership. Had some method other than blogroll been invented to show that? I don't think so.

Relevant blogroll link is also most quality traffic you can give or get.

I give much importance to this and keeps less widgets.

The AD codes you have on pages are usually Javascripts and add to the load.
But, unfortunately, there's no way around.

IMO, the BlogCatalog and MyBlogLog widgets won't be worth the load they put on your pages, if you aren't planning to concentrate on them. Even, in that case, just stick to any one of those.
