It was worse day one. So much worse. I don't know if anyone has been chastised because of it, but I would have been raked over the coals.

Buffistechnology 3: "Press Some Buttons, See What Happens."
Got a question about technology? Ask it here. Discussion of hardware, software, TiVos, multi-region DVDs, Windows, Macs, LINUX, hand-helds, iPods, anything tech related. Better than any helpdesk!
Where is the masthead now? Just gone?
Yup. I've seen the question asked, but not answered.
Yeah, I read all that stuff rss, so I don't notice. But, you know, I'm not a joiner. I don't need to talk to those people not us, so the missing functionality isn't a problem for me.
The Atlantic on the Denton network change.
IO9 was probably tied for #2 for me in terms of other places to discuss things with WX. Just with much less overlap--there's only one Buffista that ever posts there that I know of, and I doubt she'll be back after the design change.
Gawker and Jezebel were faffing off sites for me, but I've gone back to them *significantly* less often. I think the new design crashes Opera for me. It hangs periodically for me if I have one of the sites open. I want to go back to IO9 like before, but it's not like they'd ever rewind.
If they'd just fucking fix what was broken, that would be a start.
I normally go to lifehacker a fair bit...but count me among those not appreciating the change. I don't have it rss fed, because I only go when I have time to catch up--but now catching up is just annoying.
It's an application now, not a web page. Keys do weird things like move between articles.
I really like that. But I don't use the arrow keys for anything else on pages, so whatever.
It's not just arrow keys. J and K move you around as well.
I'm reluctantly getting used to it, because I love Jezebel, but I hate the missing icons to the other sites on the bottom.
