Internet, Redesign | featured news

"What we're trying to do is give everyone in the world, the best possible newspaper we can," Facebook CEO Mark Zuckerberg said when he stepped onto the stage during a press event in Menlo Park, Calif. on Thursday. A News Feed redesign that focuses on more visual posts, the ability to view content-specific feeds, and consistency between mobile and desktop experiences is the topic of the day.

Facebook appears to be planning another redesign, sending out press invites to come see a “new look for the News Feed” Thursday at the company’s headquarters in Menlo Park, Calif. The company didn’t give further details about what changes may be coming to the landing page for Facebook users that shows updates from friends and other accounts users follow. But speculation started flying soon after the invite hit the inboxes.

Trying to finally master the Internet the way it has theme parks or animated films, the Walt Disney Company has redesigned its Web site, Disney.com, for the third time in five years.

The current default look rolled out last winter with more focus on channels and social integration, while this new facade features more white space and list of channels and friends to the side. We asked YouTube about the new look and a spokesperson issued a boilerplate statement about experimenting with ways to help users find the videos that are important to them. The statement in full is after the break, however the key part is that they're listening to user feedback so take a close look at this pic and the rest at the source link below then let us (and Google) know what you think.

It appears that YouTube is getting a facelift. And Google+ might be a big part of the new look. Tech blog the Next Web was one of several whose staffers caught a glimpse of a redesigned interface on the massively popular video-sharing site.

Here we go again. Facebook has made big changes to users' pages, and people are responding in droves with their metaphorical "dislike" buttons. News Feeds were popping with not-so-gentle complaints Wednesday as many of the social-networking behemoth's 750 million users began seeing the overhaul.

Amazon.com is testing a major redesign of its website, an overhaul that could refashion the way people shop on the world's largest online retailer.

Ever since it debuted as TheFacebook in early 2004, the world's largest social network has undergone design changes both big and small...
