On Sports Illustrated's horrid redesign
I have a bunch of thoughts in the queue today, so I think I'm probably going to go on a blog-a-thon and put up about 4 posts today.
Anyway, I'm going to start with this short one -- The new SI website is horrible. I used to read ESPN or SI rather arbitrarily when there was a sports story I wanted to read. ESPN redid their site about 5 times over the years, and the latest version is so bad, I hardly ever go there anymore. I read SI almost exclusively, and every once in a while go to ESPN (mostly just for TMQ).
Well, SI looked at ESPN's ugly, hard to navigate site, and decided -- we need to make ours uglier and harder to navigate to compete!
So now I'm on the lookout for a new sports news website.
