Msn Redesign Preview
Have you seen Microsoft’s redesign of the msn.com homepage??? Personally, I’ve seen better looking Worpress themes, but let’s focus on the changes, and the features.
1. Whitespace abounds (Good)
2. Ad For Internet Explorer 8 (Check)
3. Tabs for news content (Good)
4. Local weather (Who cares, look out the window.)
5. Advertisements labeled as, “Advertisements” (Okay)
6. Local events listed. (Neat)
7. What’s this??? Facebook and Twitter Integrated. (Now we’re talking.)
8. Hotmail tab
9. Popular searches listed. (Nice)
Although this isn’t a full list, you get the idea. Overall the design in clean, intuitive and not the blue Microsoft is so accustomed to using in EVERYTHING. With FaceBook and Twitter being featured, they are on the right track, and it’s a heck of a lot better than the recent Yahoo Redesign. That’s utter catastrophe as far as I’m concerned.
Honestly it looks pretty good, very readable. I’m setting my homepage there for the time being. Of course I’m not too fond of pink, unless there are certain circumstances present that is 
Madman’s Rate 4/5. Msn.com is lookin’ better, lookin’ a whole lot better, lookin’ good.
Nice, concise review. It’s good to see Microsoft still focused on MSN even though Bing is taking plenty of the spotlight lately.
