I suppose that what you have there is basically an index page, but there is, IMHO, too much detail. I'm not sure, for example, that this is the right place for large screenshots.

At the moment, what you have amounts to a chronological list of news headlines with links to the full stories.

Perhaps you could make the homepage the "news" page with rather less detail than at present, and when the list gets long enough, then you can start adding older news pages and so on, with the full stories accessible via links from the news page(s).

I have been trying to find another site to give you an example of what I mean, but haven't been able to find a good one quickly enough at the moment.

A facility to search for articles will be very useful too when the content gets less navigable.

I hope this helps.
