We are always trying to figure out new ways to make it easier for you to find out what’s new on the site. To that end, we have introduced a new way to see what podcasts have come with the podcast view. We are keeping the main page the way it has always been, but if you just want a quick, visual way to see what has come out since you last checked, this should do the job.
You can always access this view by clicking the new menu option located to the left of the search box at the top.
Let us know what you think of this new way to browse in the comments. Depending on the reception, we may deploy this further throughout the site.
Kul! thanx guys
Very interesting layout. It certainly beats scrolling down pages of text, but you can’t see a full summary. A suggestion: perhaps a sub-title or sub header for each episode? So, like, you know how articles and reviews have headings before the actual body text? For example, NBA Live 2010 has the heading: “It’s still not friendly to newcomers, but NBA Live 10 mostly captures the feel of NBA basketball.” Maybe a brief summary like that for each episode to avoid cutting off the body text and summary of each episode? You know, so, for the new Giant Bombcast, maybe something like:
“The crew steps firm on the side of the PSP Go!, and the fiasco over Sam Fisher’s nightvision goggles continues.”
And then you click through and see the full summary. There. You can have that for FREE.
Yes, something like that would be ideal. Unfortunately, there are limitations with our platform (Worpress) which prevent that from being easy to implement. Even if we could incorporate a short summary into posts without other trade-offs, we would still have to go back through our 1000+ posts 1 by 1 to include them. It’s something we will keep looking into though.
