Slashdot has chosen a new design which will presumably become standard very soon.
I like it. I’m one of those relics who believes that Slashdot will never be usurped by sites like Digg or reddit — they are good and useful, but they are not the same. Heck, Tom Peters includes a link to Slashdot in his blogroll.
Back to the design: I’m sure I’ll see a lot of comments along the lines of It’s the same, only different (true), you just added round corners/gradients (no and yes — they already had some round corners), and more such complaints. I’m of the opinion that it retains the characteristic slashdotness of the design, but manages to make it look current. Good job, I say. Congrats to designer Alex Bendiken.
