Wired.com gets 2.0′ed
I know, enough with the 2.0 moniker, but it is fitting for the new face on the Wired.com website . . . open, trendy, clean and slapped with a "beta" label. It doesn't get more 2.0 than that. Now where are the widgets and social networking capabilities? Just teasing, I play in this space too.
The "beta" appears to be in reference to some broken story links and individual article page layouts. With about 4 varieties in the mix my vote is to keep the style for this article and ditch the page jump to read the rest of an article.
I'm not sure how long the new site has been up. It's been a long time since I last visited the site thanks to their Wired top story RSS feed. And since the feed is a partial content feed, a sentence or two teaser, I only occassionally follow the story link to the site to read an entire article. Sometimes, two sentences can sum it up pretty well, a full feed would be better. But I guess I wouldn't be writing this if I had the whole story in the feed. Hmmm . . .
Either way, Kudos to CondéNet for ditching the mullet in favor of a buzz cut.
