I think being explicit like this is really important in communication, particularly the online kind. Most people write (hate-)mail, assuming that no-one is listening. They generally write a lot, assuming that (just look at blogs, haha). Clarifying that you, the consumer, are important is vital to start a meaningful conversation, especially in an environment where it's hard to convey that kind of information.
I also like that the about-page is basically an outline of the whole blog, and that the more info-link (top-right) is the email-adress of Ramit (founder of IWTYTBR). Informative and to the point. Nice!
