  • gbouchard, on 07/23/2008, -1/+15"Props" to Propeller for being so awesome with usability (and also, loosing tons of ad space!) ;)
  • artzoom, on 07/23/2008, -1/+14what a crappy design... lost between web 1.0 and web 2.0 = no style, no brand
  • Burento, on 07/23/2008, -2/+12Have to admit the new Propeller is the worst remake of a site i have ever seen.

    Would have been nice had they 301 redirected any of the links they killed by changing every single url structure.. -OR- removed the friends pages

    Lesson 1: If your over a year late on your new design... make it remotely worth waiting for.
  • GregFD3S, on 07/24/2008, -3/+12Not the most efficient layout, but definitely not the worst social web design ever.

    Exhibit A:
    http://www.myspace.com c. 2007
  • skillfull, on 07/24/2008, -0/+6What the hell is the props system ? Anyone figure out how it works ?
  • nicolask7, on 07/24/2008, -1/+7who cares about Propeller? Diggle FTW !
  • icsbase, on 07/24/2008, -0/+4That wasted space would be full of advertisement - if only someone would be stupid enough to buy addspace :-)
  • inactive, on 07/24/2008, -1/+5I hate the new design and I hate even more the "props" system, which does not go over 10.0. What the h. is that crap?
  • aliweb, on 07/24/2008, -1/+5lol
    nice find
  • Cannon13, on 07/24/2008, -2/+5Since when is whitespace automatically 'wasted'? How about actually backing up your opinion instead of scribbling LOL all over a screenshot in MS Paint.
  • dnields, on 07/24/2008, -0/+2Exactly. Whitespace is an integral part of design. If all of the areas that the submitter labeled as "wasted space" were filled, then the page would be extremely cluttered.
  • Jasper710, on 07/24/2008, -0/+2LOL, nice
    Seriously designed by amateurs
  • leahpee, on 07/24/2008, -1/+2WHOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO
    *gasp*
    OOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOA.
  • gbouchard, on 07/24/2008, -3/+4You could say "digg-like platform" instead of Social site
  • madmondo, on 07/24/2008, -1/+2It's LAME
  • inactive, on 07/24/2008, -0/+1The Colonel has chosen not to venture too much into MySpace these days...
  • MorphicMusic, on 07/24/2008, -0/+1Twitter?
  • inactive, on 08/04/2008, -0/+1LOL nothing better than digg
  • mcfara, on 07/24/2008, -0/+1Totally pathetic - any good designer could re-style that in a day to look 100x better. Why does AOL ALWAYS suck so much at everything....well everything they've done since about 1998.
  • juliebabin, on 07/25/2008, -0/+0uh! I dont see any design there; it could have been done in Microsoft Word and exported to html.
  • dawnraid101, on 07/24/2008, -1/+1AHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHH
    * deep breath *
    AHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHH

  • inactive, on 07/24/2008, -3/+3WAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAASTED SPAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAACE
