PC World Goes Blue

Posted by KellieCM Oct 19, 2007

You may have noticed some new colors on PCWorld.com and our forums. We are trying an experiment by changing all of our links from red to blue. It's just something that we're trying out, and we're looking for your feedback on it. Please tell us if you like it more or less, if you noticed or didn't notice the change, etc.

We also added a darker grey background to the sides of the page. We hope that these changes make the page easier for you to read.

This also gives us the flexibility to use the red color for very hot stories, if we want to.

Click around the community and website, and let us know what you think in the comments below.

Attack of the News Threads

Posted by KellieCM Oct 2, 2007

Those of you who have not filtered out content from the News Discussions forum in your What's New list have likely noticed an influx of News Discussion comment threads. When we shut down our forum system on Friday, the tool that automatically creates comment threads for news stories was shut down as well. This was just re-enabled today, and we did a batch update to create threads for all the news stories posted to the site since Friday. That's why you saw a whole chunk of them show up in the "What's New" list.

This is a temporary situation, and as people post content in other places, all that stuff will filter down and the home page will get back to normal again.

Thanks for your continued patience!
