Google has just launched a new online service called Browser Size, which is a visualization of browser window sizes for people who visit Google. The title bar, toolbar, status bar and sidebar are excluded for the browser window size.
If you know what browser windows people open when they visit Google, you may estimate that what browser windows your readers open, so that you can use Browser Size to redesign your blog if some important information is in a low percent contour.
The percent in Browser Size means how many people visiting Google (or your blog) have their browser windows open to that contour. Take the Browser Size overlay on Mashable.com for example:
The contour A means that at least 50% of Mashable’s readers will open their window browsers bigger than 1050 px in width. In other words, there will be at least only 50% of the readers will see contour A of Mashable’s blog.
Then, let’s see how much content of FreeNuts blog is in the 50% contour.
Nearly no content is in contour A, so you can see, my blog has a better design layout than Mashable’s. Have you reviewed you blog on Browser Size yet? How much content of your blog is in the contour A?

I just did it for my site, and my posts are in the 95% range, but my sidebar leaks into the 50%. However, I noticed that it doesn't take into account whether or not your site resizes when the resolution changes. Or am I just using the tool incorrectly?
