Hello and welcome to the RELAUNCHED CNN.com! Our new site is the culmination of over a year of listening, researching, analyzing, and building a site to meet your needs. If there were an "easy button" for news, this is what you'd expect. Thank you to everyone who visited our Beta version during the past few weeks and provided feedback. We've listened and made adjustments to reflect changes you recommended. First and foremost, I want to personally thank you for being some of CNN.com's best customers, fans and supporters. As Pipeline subscribers, you've done the rarity... signed up for a pay content service on the internet. I hope that you've found value in your 7 cent/day habit. A clear pattern of comments from our audience is emerging, and I'd like to update you on our progress. On the positive side, we're hearing things like the new site is clean, easy to navigate, simple, and has great new features like local news/weather and flash video. On the "areas of improvement" (euphemism for you guys have screwed up), we're hearing that the site is "too white," doesn't have enough news, is hard to read/scan, and the videos are really choppy and don't work well in (earlier) versions of Firefox. Welcome to our newly rebuilt BETA site! We hope you love it. A lot of careful thought and creative energy has been put into the site, which will be the launching pad of several new initiatives over the next year. If you have the time and are passionate about CNN.com, please send us your feedback by clicking the various FEEDBACK links on the site. Trust me, we read every comment and our skin is pretty thick. |
