This is great. I feel like their old site hadn't been updated in 10 years or so (which is also good proof that a useful service/product comes before great visual design). But now they have both!
Shouldn't that entire main section be centered though?
I was thinking the same.
Yes - but ads? :)
I can't focus on anything while that main section is awkwardly left justified.
A lot designers run adblock, which makes the layout look pretty funny. When you disable it, you can see "ad land." We had to make a tough choice about where to place them that would work on multiple layouts, but also deal with a max-width for the page. We'll keep ironing out the kinks :)
It's a significant improvement. As a regular user of the site, I found the old UI particularly frustrating.
For real.
Something about the type or something feels very Bing-y to me.
If you have ideas for how it could be better, we're hiring :)
Greg! You're sniping my karma!
;) I've had this composed and ready to submit for months!
