Unless you’re reading this in our RSS feed, you’ve probably noticed the site redesign that launched late Thursday. I’d love to have your candid feedback on it.
- What do you think of the design?
- What do you think of the new features?
- Does it make you want to engage more or engage less than our old site?
- Is it more approachable or less? More professional or less?
Here’s what’s changed, besides the obvious design modifications:
- We moved off WordPress to Ruby on Rails
- We added Disqus as our commenting functionality, and got all the functionality that comes with that.
- We added Facebook Connect to let you sign-in and comment with your Facebook identity
- We added an enhanced Tools section, where we share some of the tools we use in our work. Some, like the Follow-Me plugin for WordPress, add good functionality to blogs, others are just shortcut tools that helps us, so we’re sharing.
There are a few other little things, but let me know what you think.
