Minor tweaks| bigger, more, better?

Just felt that my blog skin is getting a bit too long in the tooth, so
I made some minor updates to the code.

Firstly, I hope you'll like the new font template. I matched the font
on Blogger with the font on my Mail.app. It's Trebuchet MS 12pt
regular - so it's Web-friendly. Please let me know if the new font
looks crap.

That's not all, though. I widened the main body by 50px, but I
narrowed the side column by 150px. Hopefully, it looks like you have
more space to read posts with the narrower side space, especially with
the larger font size.

I also upped the font size all around the blog. the links, the
profile, the twitter space, etc.

Also, in terms of external content, I increased my twitter update
section to show 5 posts rather than 3, since I update quite often.
Another thing I increased is the number of "sites I frequent" links -
there's some new links that I often visit. You can check it out and
see if you like them, too.

Oh, one completely insignificant tweak: the time stamp. I use "time:"
rather than "//" for the time stamp on my blog posts.
