Ars Updates Look

Ars Technica has changed its look. The problem is that it now looks like the Verge. Ultra busy front page with way too many stories. Supposedly there is a way to go back to the old style, but when I tried to use it, there was no change.

A lot of tech sites don't seem to understand that if we don't like what you've done, we'll go elsewhere. there are plenty of tech sites out there. Gawker is my pet hate. They got rid of the "blog view". Firefox has an add-on that worked for awhile, but then the multiple updates to the browser broke the extension. So no more Lifehacker or Gizmodo.

Now I guess I will try the new Ars & see if the articles are easy to find. Sometimes The Verge has good stuff. the problem with that sites setup is they have a tendency to have the same article listed several times. That's a waste of space. hopefully Ars won't go that route.
