MySpace launches site redesign next week
MySpace will launch a redesign of its site on Wednesday.
The homepage will have improved usability, more engaging features, and easier access to MySpace hotspots via new content modules, the networking site said in an email.
MySpace will roll out improved site navigation with a greater emphasis on search and the community aspects of the site. And the search function will be cleaner with enhanced relevancy scoring. Searches can also be made using the following categories: people, MySpace site, web, music and MySpaceTV.
MySpaceTV will have new menu options that encourage the user to share their content and interact with others, with tabs to show and share videos in this fashion: “more from the user” and “top videos playing on MySpace today.”
And MySpace is updating its profile editor to offer users “a more creative palette of page themes.” They’ll be able to pick profile themes with a single click and create profiles without knowing how to code html.
It’s really about time. The site has become cluttered, and needed some streamlining.
