  4. Chris Mac says:

  5. Chris Mac says:

    go daddy sucks btw.. never use them. even if it’s free

  6. Bob says:

    Wth?Is this?
    The site is too sluggish and the comment box is acting all weird.
    Using chrome.

  7. simon says:

    sites very slow and whats with the over sized video box to the top right of the page.
    unless this is a safari prob ?

  8. simon says:

    fix the big video thing and the weirdo text entry box it keeps jumping to the frontof the line if you stop writing.

  9. jim says:

    The Micro poll doesn’t seem to reflect the comments posted. I wonder how accurate it really is.

  10. David Laws says:

    I Like the look of it but the layout seems to be disorganized and not easy to navigate on.  The old one was far easier to follow along.  The Susan Boyle video seems to be large and out of place.  It almost feels like an error.

  11. RikS says:

    Check out J-Walks Blog at http://j-walkblog.com/ nice simple design and simple comment pages.

  12. Universal Turing Machine says:

    like the old one better it may have been old but its was unique and very easy on eyes

  13. Fat_Anarchy says:

     I’m pretty much gonna spout the same sentiments as the rest of the people on here already have. This text box reeaallly needs to
    be sorted out as a priority. It is completely unworkable. It has already taken me 5 minutes just to write this much with the damn cursor jumping back to the from of the line, making random full stops appear where they arent wanted. It makes people think I can’t type correctly.

    I think the main site layout isn’t very elegant. A lot of people seem to think that shoving as much information on a page is good. It isnt. It looks like youve just loaded a shotgun with random “content” and fired it into my face at point blank. 4 columns is not necessary at all. Simplicity is the key to web design. If I was a new comer here, id be somewhat scared off by the overload of crap on the first page I see…much of it irrelvant information like, latest comments, weird videos of singing scotswomen, etc etc.

    I don’t want toc ompletely rip it apart though. I think the new banner is cool. Just get the commeents system sorted out, and simplify the first page, and make it 2 columns…3 colums as most, and keep it simple. thats what I liked about the old site. conciuse and to the point. no BS.

    p.s: I am aware this post if full of typos, but im too scared to go back and change them incase the cursor flies off the page and into my eye, as its been everywhere else on the screen..

  14. green says:

    The stuff on the right is floating in whitespace. needs a container of some sort. Things are cramped in the middle. On the old site the stories stood out, now they kinda get lost.
    Text needs more contrast in places. Use of greys on greys (# of comments footer).

  15. Dallas says:


    The cursor is in some strange George Bush designed way.   Also, I cannot invoke the keyboard on my iPod Touch as I used to.  How in the hell can I respond to the idiots here when I know I have to be laying down to read some of their opinions?
    !  B> TEXT BOX EDITOR IS JACKED UP

  16. bob says:

    Comment system needs to go back to the way it was…cursor thing is really annoying
    too busy, I liked the simplicity and speed of the old site

  17. Adam says:

    The new color scheme and header look nice, but the right side looks way too cluttered.  There is simple too much between the video and the ads.

  18. bob says:

    Really messy with too much white space
    Old site was simple, clean and easy to read.
    Slow to load
    Too busy and comments section is  totally Obama’d

  19. Duffy says:

    Oh, come on, John.  This is screwed up  Right justified??!!??  OMG!  Go back to the old site.  this one’s not working.

  20. billabong says:

    Lose the eyeballs at the top

  21. Susan Boooooooooooooooooooooyle says:

    Ok I got the peering guy blocked now how do I block Susan Boyle and any other stupid flash presentation that would waste my time appearing in the upper right corner?

  22. Mark Derail says:

    I KNOW !!!
    I KNOW !!!!

    Marc Perkel designed the site ! The Linux Guru !

    THAT’S WHY it’s so horrible. I’m sure the Perkel the SysAdm conveniently “lost” the previous source code. BOFH.

    $$$ Just buy the source code to Icanhascheezburger.com, which other sites also use, like GraphJam.com.

    Other suggestions: Engadget, TechCrunch (though I doubt they’ll sell theirs)

    I even know a way to make this site WORSE – use the CNET layout ! HAhaha

  23. Paranoiac says:

    They… They… Follow me around the room! 

  24. Sterling says:

    The new layout seems a bit on the cluttered side. I like the  new look of the site, but the design/layout could be better.

  25. Brons says:

    The design is cluttered, busy and off-putting. It discourages me rather than encourages me to visit frequently.

    There’s way too much JavaScript for those of us who use NoScript (and a lot of TWiT listeners both use it and visit this site), and the site doesn’t fail all that gracefully flr the lack of it.

    To my eye, the site suffers from the redesign and while it won’t chase me away, it will probably reduce the frequency of my visits. It’s more hassle and less pleasant to come here.

  26. Sterling says:

    PS Also, the video and top bit on the upper-right corner of the site is making the page scroll to the right. it messes up the whole page. And for some strange reason, typing a comment looks odd.

  27. Toxic Asshead says:

    #1 – Put post numbering back: it’s a lot easier to make a specific response

    #2 – Get rid of thhe multiple pages of comments: Makes it a pain to read a long conversation.  Stream the whole works in chronological order

    #3 – The page is now too wide with the video thing in the upper right.

    #4 – The profanity does not exist to properly describe the text entry box. It makes me feel like I’m having a stroke.  ’nuff said.

  28. Greg Allen says:

    WORSE:
    1) What the heck?  Did you outsource this to a Pakistani web firm?  Why the left to right comment boxes?
    2) Why can’t I do a line break?
    ..
    BETTER:
    1) the top banner is nice. A little big-brotherish but..
    2) Because I have an old monitor, the right side ads and other crap are cut-off. But that’s not a bad thing!
    ..
    NO CHANGE:
    1) You have way too much going on. Your content is getting lost.

  29. Greg Allen says:

    Oops. I meant to say “right to left” text boxes.

  30. Greg Allen says:

    I like the hierarchal “you are here” subject/tag sentence.
    ,,
    It was so unobtrusive that I didn’t notice it at first but I’m using it already and it works well.
    ,,
    In contrast, all the social networking buttons ARE obtrusive and I doubt I’ll ever use them.
