Note from the Editor

2008_12_construction.jpg Nihao everyone! You might have noticed that Shanghaiist looks a little different today. In fact, all of the Gothamist network has been going through a bit of a remodelling lately. The goal of the new design was to make content easier to read, and to make the site as a whole easier to use. The content area is now better visually defined (with borders!) and we've added featured posts to the top of the page. Additionally, we've migrated the blog to the newest Movable Type software. That should make the site faster and more stable, and allow us to add new features over the next year. The new design you see before you is a work in progress -- we'll be making tweaks to it as we go along, and we welcome your feedback (and bug reports) in the comments on this post. Hope you like our new look as much as we do!

Comments are working on Shanghaiist again!

And, oh, did you know you can now comment on comments?

You crack me up, but alas sometimes the only way to get intelligent conversation is to talk to yourself

How deep does this go, I wonder?

Bug report. Joblist page. Logos not loading and slicing of mid sentence on the That's Shanghai posting.

All in all okay, not that different, but way tighter packed than before - leave some space for breathing?

I like that sentences are easier to read now, because they don't float so far anymore.

Just a note, for some reason, when viewing shanghaiist.com now (any page), my browser starts using the full processor resources on my computer. I'm using firefox 3.0.4, and winxp SP2. Nothing broken exactly, but i have to close shanghaiist in order to get anything else done.

Thanks jenming for bringing this to our attention. Our techies in NY are already aware of this problem and are working on it!

Is it meant to look like this?

Because that's what it looks like on Safari and Firefox on my Mac.
