It's not bad, but personally I like less "things" when possible. The minimalism of this site is a huge part of its appeal to me, especially when a lot of sites I visit like Autoblog, Youtube, BBC, etc. tend to be more than a bit busy. Hell, this site could be nothing but plaintext and I'd love it even more.
I love simple and minimalistic sites. However, the hub wheel is the only way I check for replies to my posts and comments (I don't really use my email that often, it's just easier to open the browser and go to Hubski directly). Taking it away will, IMHO, reduce functionality. But then again, maybe you're right.
