It looks good. If you want to improve the site, focus on loading time. My connection is 25+mbps download and the site takes about 3 seconds to fully load. You can do the standard to improve this...
  • Move your jQuery/JavaScript/Plugins to the bottom. Just before </body> will do.
  • Update your jQuery to the latest version
  • Reduce HTTP requests... Combine .css/.js files so visitor browsers can better take advantage of caching.
  • Reduce HTTP requests... Use more CSS sprites for images
  • Add title text to your <a> links for SEO purposes
  • Use full URIs instead of relative URIs for SEO purposes
  • Redirect non-www to www ... or www to non-www (duplicate content, SEO)
  • Remove <meta name="keywords"> ... It's useless/doesn't do anything
  • Strip HTML whitespace, use GZIP
