    OMG. New Site is Lame!!!!

    You are missing the point. The new site is about trying to be fashionable and flashy, up-to-date if you will. Ignore the content. Bling bling is the order of the day. (And ad content). Try dailypeleton.com, not as detailed as the old site, but more enjoyable than the new one.

    New site design

    Painfully slow. Site is as slow as our old Ford Escort, and has the same kind of stutters and shakes. Tried to give it a second chance today, but no go. velonews and dailypeleton have become much better alternatives, I'm afraid. Rarely visited those sites in the past, but what choice do I...

    New site design

    Shrinkage. Thank-you for changing the site. I am now spending less time here, and more time where it really matters, on the bike and in the financial pages. I left eBay behind when they screwed up, and I can do the same with you. Oh, and the way the pages load, it reminds me of the one...

    Flash Technology Sucks Flash ruined the eBay site, and it is a contributor to the failure here. Just google: flash technology sucks Even Steve Jobbs says it sucks. I'm sure flash is an asset and blessing for certain applications, but maybe just not for reading news. Adobe must be...
