Yahoo!'s designers at work – new Yahoo! News

The last few weeks were pretty busy for Yahoo!. That is because the designers from Yahoo! were pretty busy too. After the new design for the home page, which is still in test mode for a small section of users, Yahoo! News got a new smile.

Smoother gradients, less rounded corners, revamped navigation menu, additional spacing are few of the new improvements. Don’t expect tot be a big redesign, or a radical one. This design was made in order to polish the way Yahoo! news are displayed. Now, the user can easily focus on the content and will not be distracted by the lack of spacing, or irritating ads displayed close to the text.

Overall a good redesign. Nothing too spectacular or impressive, but the new design has a good feeling. Oh, and if you want to check the new design, you will have to press on the ling in the top yellow section.
Cheers!

Andy Gongea is a passionate UI/UX designer with a great appetite for technology and trends. Currently he owns, a future wife, a loan that comes with a monthly fee and some strange ideas about user interface and user interaction. Cheers!
