TechCrunch redesigned

I missed this for a few days as like many, I use a feedreader to read TechCrunch. However the site design is important especially for first-time visitors, as I was a few months ago.

One thing stands out - lots more advertising. It's also been carefully positioned for maximum clicks, but it's made things like search harder to get to.

The new navigation bar is very good though - stands out, is easy to read, and takes you to very useful places. Having "About" as the first entry is very good - it's the first thing a new visitor to a site will want to read.

So there you have it - much more monetization, which is fair enough, and better navigation. The colour - the green - is a little strong, but it's distinctive and eye-catching - you'll remember visiting TechCrunch! Overall, I like it.
