I sometimes log into MySpace just to see how bad it still is. Their frontend developers still don't appear to care about user experience or have any design sense. They've smattered the site with ajax, rollovers, effects, etc, and as usual there's ads all over the place. Picture browsing is even more of an eyesore than it was before. As if MySpace wasn't taxing on the CPU enough already.
- wheaties 16y agoTheir frontend developers did that? You sure? I'd say their management/marketing/sales/some idiot with more seniority than anyone else with any common sense did that. The frontend developers were simply the guys that had to code it in.
- robryan 16y agoI've always felt the site was just to slow because of the amount of elements and images on a page. While the new design looks okay it really doesn't nothing to address this major problem. For someone on a sub optimal connection or using an older browser I'd imagine myspace would be a horrible experience.
- vaksel 16y agoI don't think it's that. I think they realize that if someone wanted the clean experience, they'd be using Facebook. So maybe the reason they are sticking around on myspace is the current version. So they don't want to eliminate their current business and are instead embracing their existing users.
