Jason,

If it were my resumé, I would consider including only the technologies I
had interest in working with professionally.  Getting involved in
collaborative open source development (i.e. contributing to established
projects) is likely to increase your confidence, as well as that of a
prospective employer - you could consider shunting off the coursework
details (or listing those as "Interests", if they're interests) if you had
some voluntary development to put in its place.  Other ways to fill out
space while improving content would be to include a generic (i.e. not
job-specific) introduction beneath the heading, or using complete sentences
for the job description at the bottom.  If you go with bullet points, using
a list indicator might make this clearer.

As far as visual feedback: it might scan better if the section headings in
the left column were kept to single words (i.e. no line breaks), and were
vertically justified with the top of corresponding piece of text in the
adjacent column (using a table with invisible borders).  The alignment of
the info icons (which are a good call) is off in a similar way, and that
block does not appear horizontally centred to me.  Some colour variation
may help also - examples would be converting the urls into links (with the
url as the link text, for printing), or using a dark shade of grey for
heading or title text.

Take care,
Moe
