Travel + Leisure Unveils New Site Design

A stop over at Travel + Leisure’s web internet site reveals a link to the revamped web-site design (click here to preview it). The most noticeable distinction is the 2.-esque widening of the web site itself, a clear improvement on the narrow, crowded interface of the old design.

The white background has been supplanted by a cool, icy blue motif behind the logo and the navigation bar has been simplified and cleaned up. But most noticeably and possibly most annoyingly, the feature write-up section that utilized to list every post from top to bottom by date, has been replaced with the oh-so-annoying, trendy slideshow graphic. Except for the fact that I’m not a fan of getting to wait for the slideshow to cycle via to see what articles I’m being presented, I don’t like the fact that we only see the five articles that they chose to highlight, whereas prior to they listed over 20 articles.

I, TheExpeditioner.com, give the new web-site . . . wait for it . . . 2 1/two stars out of 4.
