About: It’s official. We have a redesign. It’s up. Check it out, kids.



So here it is. Our redesign. We've spent months working on this bad boy. We've been talking about this in bits and pieces over the last few months, but now here it is. And we hope you guys like it. Because you're awesome and make us look good when you like stuff we do.

What hasn’t changed
The commitment to providing people with short, info-packed bites that provide quick insight into the day’s news. Most of the post styles are still exactly the same as they were on day one of the site. Oh, and Julius is still the mascot. (And one of the trademarks, referring to the site in the “editorial we,” continues unabated.)
What has changed
Over the last ten months, it’s become clear what’s worked and what hasn’t, and what was needed to take that basic idea and turn it into something more useful for readers. So with that, we’re adding focus on navigation, improving our content focus and pushing a design that encourages exploration. Read more above. source

    Sweet.
  • Loving the re-design, makes it look a lot smoother.
  • Well, it's certainly grayer.
  • ShortFormBlog's redesign is pretty darn awesome! Love the simplicity and all the little buttons to share and explore. Also... Check this out! you snuck some ads down here with the comments! That's pretty cool in that they are non-intrusive yet difficult to miss!
