Still getting used to the new site. There are some changes I really like, such as being able to @ reply people and not seeing the percent loved. Other changes I'm not as into - for example I loved the old smilies and I can't find them/ the don't exist. I think mostly once I'm used to the new layout it will be functional, and I know they're working on a few of the issues I find bothersome. I can't wait to be able to edit comments in groups again.
How do you like the site?

I don't like the idea of there being *so* much less information on each page. The fact that I now have to click on 5 pages to find what used to be altogether on one page makes the experience here seem really disjointed. And even when I do get to those 5 pages, what's there is so much reduced in content from the old format. All in all, it gives the feeling that SG has been really dumbed down, an unsettling trend that we see in so many things these days. Of course they say we'll get used to it, and perhaps we will, but the idea that we'll all find ourselves get used to things that are increasingly bereft of content and complexity, simply because they look better on a tiny screen, is worrisome I think. Then again, I'm old fashioned, and not one who lives my life on a tiny screen.
