CNN's Redesign

Posted by: Giovanni Calabro In: User Experience

CNN.com just launched a redesigned site today.  Two aspects that are striking to me.

  1. Strong push for personalization.
    CNN was already pushing heavily on personalization however they are promoting it even stronger with this redesign.  I wonder how this will be adopted by their audience.
  2. What happened to the clean design?
    Seems CNN moved from the open, lighter design (which still packed an awful lot of information) to a further gridded-packed to the hilt design.  This might still work considering they are a strong breaking news source.  The information heavy design may fit with audience expectations.  TBD.

You can learn more with their informational relaunch description.
