The front page looks great.  The outline clearly lets
the audience see what is included.  The picture and
design go well together.  It is hard to differentiate
what is the authors work or added input and what are
links to other people's sites.
        The introduction page is well written and includes a
lot of useful and appropriate information but the
relevance of this topic is missing.  There is no
motivation for this information.  Maybe the audience
is so narrow that the motivation is already known to
the audience.  The guidelines were a nice added
component.  This page has a lot of information on it.
It is not easy to go through quickly.  The links under
this topic are little confusing.  The first one is
actually a bunch of articles not just the "From Shake
Flask to Fermentor". The other link seems to be just a
good link for locating additional references.
        The bioreactors page contains a lot of information as
well.  I thought this page was exceptionally designed
because of the bold headings.  Just this little piece
of organization makes the page a good source of
information that is easy to understand.  The pictures
on this page should be linked to their original
location on the web.  Information on what the links
under this topic include would be helpful.
        The agitation and aeration pages include again a good
amount of information.  These pages seem to be a
little long.  Maybe it would have been better to take
some of the information and make it a link.  If this
is supposed to be a quick reference guide (maybe this
is not what it is supposed to be) than it's a little
long for that.
        The last few pages are shorter with the information
given but could use some more diagrams or links to add
to the page.  The scale up strategies link is broken.
I like the way the references are made into links.
Overall this webpage contains a lot of information
that is well organized.  It seems there was a lot of
effort was put into it.
