The Huffington Post is now HuffPost with a new layout.

It now looks like a cheap gossip site. It's horrible.

Did anyone tell them "If it ain't broke, don't fix it"?

1. I seriously thought about deleting my link to their site...

Not liking it one bit. What's with the ginormous top article anyway? It's way too big. Meanwhile, there's a whole lot of wasted space.

6. Shh! They'll hear you and fill that space with self-starting videos!

2. It sucked before

Now it's worse.

Too many of their stories are links to other websites and don't represent their own reporting. Additionally, there are so many links to click-bait sites.

Lastly, their hosting software is terrible. The pages are constantly shifting to display various ads or graphics and it's always clunky.

Originally, the site had potential. Now, it's just crap.

3. I was wondering if anyone else would point that out... Looks like the National Enquirer website...

Yuck.... scattered and sensationalistic, disorganized

4. Well said.

"It now looks like a cheap gossip site. It's horrible."

5. Hunh... I have always thought it looked like a cheap gossip site.

I have to admit, though, that I have only been there a few times in several years due to various reasons.

7. Add me to the "don't like it" crowd n/t

8. Well, it loads a lot better on my computer now

I often times avoid Huffington Post because of the ads and how the frames load. Page jumping around. This new format loads nicely on my computer

9. Yeah, imo it's a poor design, and that huge graphic at the top makes it hard to get...

to the news. Bet they change that soon.

Now the stories are laid out in a disjointed fashion in several different formats. You don't know if that's to signify that some are hard news and some are feature stories. It's just an unorganized jumble.

They also got rid of their comments sections for stories a few weeks ago without even announcing it, at least I did see any notification. That was about the only reason to stay on that site for any length of time.

10. i left years ago when they requested

that you must post with your real name instead of a pseudonym. There are enough crasy rw'ers out there that i did not tbink it was a good idea..
