The MSN Homepage is out with a new, streamlined and less cluttered look. While marking another milestone in the history, the MSN team has finally succeeded in making a page that is easier to navigate and is filled with services that web users need on daily basis. You can now get information about online videos, sports, lifestyle, news, entertainment and Bing search experience all-together on the MSN Homepage.

 

The Bing is integrated in all the key areas of the page like travel, shopping, local and for highlighting hot topics, people or trend. If you are looking for detailed local information, it will be available on the new MSN local Edition, the only local online source with a combination of Bing search and real-time community news. The information here is grouped on the basis of ZIP code.

The new MSN homepage also gives you the freedom to in contact with your friends on social networking sites like Twitter, Windows Live and Facebook.  

The preview of the new MSN homepage will start rolling out on November, 2009 and it will be available to more than 100 million U.S. customers only by early 2010.  

The MSN team is also encouraging people to try out the newest addition and give feedback.

Absolutely terrible. Hurts your eyes. I will change to something else. Why break something that is perfectly good. I do not like bing either.

Fire the person who made the new change. This person is just on the payroll looking for something to do to keep his paycheck.

I have changed my homepage to aol. The decision maker on the new msn page needs to quit making up things to do while on a the golf course. Listen to your managers and customers on this one.

Where to start, the colors look fitting for an elementary school girl.  There is less information less organized.  People who look at the MSN homepage are looking for three things: 1. New, 2. Entertainment, 3. Searches.  And a little personalization is fine to a certain degree.  The original looks polished, informative, professional.  This looks unpolished, less informative, annoying layed out.  Maybe you could do something with the internet top bars.  I have 6 stupid bars at the top of my screen. 6!!  Maybe 1 or 2 nicely layed out would be awesome, maybe I can change than in explorer, but it's annoying.  And guess what, when I download something, I don't want another stupid bar.

I almost forgot, Bing sucks.  You would think a search engine might, you know, find what I'm looking for, instead of random crap.  Here's an idea, you don't actually pay me, like the geniuses who thought of this new home page, but how about an area where I can click to narrow down what I'm searching for (which I really (really) nead for bing.
Oh and btw, thanks for everyone who finally learned to create a website for filling up the internet with useful garbage.  I can remember when in College, trying to find information about something, and oh wonderful a professors lab paper or assignment popping up.  Sweet, more garbage I get to sift through, because I have so much time on my hands to go threw something you just happened to put on the internet instead of email.  Which is different than this…..cause when you type in some chemical reacting with some other chemical, you're not going to pull up this blog.

Please, please bring back the former MSN home page!  This one is so hard on the eyes.  I have a glare problem and simply cannot view the new Bling page.  Why can we not be offered a choice of which page we prefer, the former one or the Bling one

Hate it, hate it, will no longer date it. I'm going to have to switch. I want proper stock exchange stats, not just "plus or minus" numbers (or is that a glitch on my page? it's so stupid, it must be). I am creeped out by the "local" info (mostly PR) that I didn't ask for; what business is it of M$ where I live? And the combination of white space and clutter! — what genius actually managed that?

I totally agree. I will be changing to something else and checking their page from time to time to see if they listen to people.

Change is not always good; the new MSN homepage is a fabulous example of that. MSN.com's been my homepage since the late 1990's. I'll be checking out other sites for a new homepage, when I find one, I'll be changing. And, notice, I used the word 'when' – I know there's something better out there. Sure would love to find the former MSN.com site — that would be SO GREAT!
