I see the BBC have now switched off the Desktop version of their news website.. and redirected us to the new site.

I don't like it , its too white and its just bland looking now.. any views?

Actually that ought to be
Not so good, I think.

I've been using the new phone app for a while and, apart from being unable to rearrange the order of the headings, I quite like it! I suspect I'll get used to it!

I was viewing on my laptop maybe I'll try my phone and ipad see how it looks there....

I'm not happy with it either! It seems more muddled somehow.

I think it looks as if it is being put in BIG BLOCK TYPE with lots of white space so that it can be read more easily by people with limited literacy.

I dislike the feeling it gives that perhaps I cannot manage big words and do not want more than six words together in a block because I may not understand them.

I have had BBC News as my Home Page. I am now looking for an alternative.
