 [http://www.useit.com/alertbox/reading_pattern.html F-shaped pattern] is a
 fine ideal, but the [http://plone.org/news/a-new-look-for-plone.org new
 look] tendency to use the right-hand column, for portlets that were
 previously at left, makes the site feel very back-to-front in some places.

 Most noticeable with navigation portlets; to me this type of portlet feels
 very wrong at right hand side. Maybe a dyslexic opinion.

 Personally: I tend to use right hand column for contextual stuff. Echoes
 of right-click/control-click contextual menu behaviours.

 Personal opinions aside:

 also demonstrates context (''ALSO SEE'') at right hand side.
