Not sure i love the green color, but I'd say it's an improvement.

Now if only they could get rid of their far left agenda and virulent anti-mormon commenters they could be on to something.

funny. sltrib.com appears down. Not just the homepage, but the entire site.

new design not quite as robust as they were expecting?

The color scheme of Drew's blog seems to rotate. They really need to take red out of that particular rotation.

User settings for blog comments not working. I wanted an avatar.

That being said, I see that they added "ignore" as a new feature. No more yewt trolls showing up on every BYU post? Hurray!

Maybe now that yewtah is joining the new PAC-0 perhaps they'll actually be big enough boys to get a shiny blog of their very own! :utard:

It seems to me that, more than before, they've broken up their article into little four-paragraph chunks. It drives me crazy to have to keep clicking to continue reading. Just that by itself is almost enough to keep me off the site.

so NOW the site is BLUE....

and they break it up because the more times you click on the site, the more ads they can sell per page. It's a revenue model, albeit an annoying one.

The site rotates color schemes.

On the left side of the page, there is a link to "Printer-friendly version." This pops up the whole article so it can be printed.


Where the hell am I going and why am I in this handbasket?

Still a horribly difficult website to read. Don't they focus group this stuff before they release it?
