Where is the masthead now? Just gone?
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!
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.
I'm still using the hidden old site for io9 and ignoring the other sites. They're not as easy to skim, and I don't have any community stake in them.
