CNN's New Website Design Deconstructed | Webdesigner Depot

On Monday, October 26, CNN.com introduced a new website design, making a number of major changes to their information-heavy layout.

The new design is beautiful, clean, organized and well-structured. It invites the eye to scan and find something interesting with the goal of clicking through to another page.

The previous design was somewhat cluttered and not very inviting; the content looked liked it was being forced into an unstructured space. The new layout is very different and embraces a number of modern web design and usability best practices and trends.

Back In America

We have now officially returned from our 10 and a half month trip around the world. We've been posting photos and stories at brainplug.org/worldtrip, but we're a little behind. More updates will come soon. In the meantime, we're now in SF and headed back to the southeast for the holidays.
