The Eye of the Beholder Has a Mouth
Web designers have it tough. Some people love what they create, others don't. You can't please all the people all the time. They say that beauty is in the eye of the beholder. Problem is, thanks to blogs, the beholder now has a mouth and can give feedback. Sometimes, it's very blunt. Lifehacker rolled out a new design last night and boy are the readers giving their honest feedback. Check out the comments. It just goes to show that everything is open to debate when it comes to blogs and it's all out in the open.







hm) i don`t understand why nobody coments this information?
i`d like to read somebody`s posts

Hopefully I am not the only one who finds it interesting (and a sign of 2.0 potential) that at 06/28/06 11:25AM a LH commentor had created a modification that displays the redesigned page to their preferences, and is willing to share it. I mean, even if you mod. the CSS for a few days while the bugs are worked out, we all know that a few days onlnie are critical to your prime audience. Gina is encouraging submissions of GreaseMonkey scripts, CSS mods...hey, despite the new look, the concept itself of community involement is pretty 'cool' (keep in mind, need 'cool' = business 'selling point')
No personal comments on the redesign, my RSS doesn't seem to care all that much.
