beta vesion of the new MSN layout
Best viewed in IE6

[cristobal]

It looks... looks... Yahooish....

[delusion]

Seeing that you said view it with IE6, I almost automatically clicked it with Firefox, and boy I can tell you .... BUGS a whole heap of them. I don't think this BETA will be finishing anytime soon.

But as cristobal said, a bit too like yahoo in a sense, I don't really think this will take off, unless they implement something different and unique.

I concur. It looks a lot like yahoo. But they'll probably still have a huge following mainly because the average computer user will use Microsoft products and when they hear MSN is Microsoft, they'll probably flock to it.

Overall, it's not too bad, however I perfer the clean cut look of Google.

yes me me too... i prefer the clean and simple google...
I thinks thats the main reason why google becomes so popular besides of their good search results

[proctor]

I don't care much for the layout but I do love my rankings...

How are your rankings on the beta site vs google?

[mainstream_guru]

well this is not so new, it's been in "Beta" almost a year now

[boohlick]

are you talking about the design or the msn search?

I never search with msn, i like google best. The layout eh, it seems so plain and empty, it does look like Yahoo but Yahoo's is not empty, its filled with links and text. Well duh Yahoo is the number one website.

I thought you ment the msn messenge's new look when i looked at the first post.. hehe

I hate yahoo, in an SEO view... hehehe... yahoo is like a portal to me
