Furthermore the first immovable un-customizable section takes up almost an entire standard screen forcing you to scroll if in the future there were new sections you could customize your content with. It was my start page because it was MY startpage.

MyMSN was a jumping point to the web via links with things that were relevant to my interests surrounding it that I might check out if interesting.

It offers less that it did before. On the old I could see a list of about 8 e-mails, now I have to hover which is an added step and shows one or two which my not be all new e-mails that came in. No access to add any content you want. To be comfortable, I have to see what is mostly offered on the entire homepage.

I can increase the text size and so on, but I cannot have this mess in my face. Not much of an explanation there, I can tell you that.

This has nothing to do with what the public wants, it has everything to do with Boredom of the Geeks syndrome. THEY are bored, no one else is! Bye bye! You may want to make sure your Hotmail email is backed up if it is that important. The preview section fails to indicate whether the links I have on my current homepage are available on the new one.

I have searched most of the preview and it seems that there are only one or two links that I desire. Does someone know if I will be able to have headlines and links sections to the WSJ, The Economist and other websites that I want to keep on my homepage? I have Xp!!! I hate this! No one has said this or that facility was removed or no longer operates and I need it. Build a bridge. Life, it goes on. Who knows for how long. I hope this helps those of us who prefer what we are used to.

The great thing about the Internet, and for that matter, free enterprise in general, is you can vote with your feet and your wallet. There are dozens of choices. How about FOX news or Newsmax? However, a lot can be said for which news organizations they sponsor and their Corporate Governance — which seems dedicated to infuriating their patrons… DC.

The old reality: websites were designed for large screen computers and mobile devices had special versions or had to get by somehow. The new or impending reality is that mobile devices are or are perceived to be the main audience and desktops can handle such sites easily — although they look like crippled shadows of what they used to be.

I find it utterly hilarious that there is a five year break in the comments, and if the posting date of the comments were removed, you would be unable to tell if the comments were from or It also cracks me up how much people complain when a FREE service changes. For those that do not like it just choose another website. Microsoft are providing a FREE service; if you feel strongly that the new presentation offends you, well, go find another provider and stop carping on like Luddites.

I have no strong opinions about the msn. I will say that the new design is not arbitrary, at least not in More and more websites are changing their appearance so that they work and display better on a smartphone or tablet. My issue however is less with appearance than with whether the new format works on a computer.

In that, we actually have a lot of control. There are dozens of web portals to choose from. You might even find one you like better than the old MSN. MSN is essentially an online magazine and a guide to what you may be interested in on the Web. Yahoo has a portal, AOL has a portal. Every newspaper and magazine in the world even Playboy has a website you can set as your home page.

I have already changed my home page to Yahoo, but I am looking for something better at the same time. Like all fish swim in water but not everything swimming in water is a fish. Are you? Decca and Polydor kept the same labels for absolutely decades!!! And Tamla Motown — and look what happened to them when they did change it.

There is one great cure for home pages. I use Firefox for my browser and have it start with a blank page. I believe most browsers have this option, and they also use tabs when browsing. Firefox has a bookmarks toolbar,I keep the sites I use most often here. I actually put some folders in my bookmarks toolbar in Firefox and put some bookmarks in the folders. All my bookmarks are in the toolbar under some folder. Firefox starts with a blank page.

It is NOT free. Thanks, Steve. Jack Hewes has summed it well. But not to MS. Except that with so many devices today that can access the internet, the old MSN might be broken on one or more of those devices. It is way cheaper to make one system to work on every device than it is to make customized versions for different devices. I think what these companies should do is a better job of explaining what was broke that needed fixing.

Firefox does this every time there is a new version … a tab will open up and provide a link so you can find out what changed and some of the reason why. A few technical failings remain, in particular the way the originating email address defaults to the root when responding to something sent to a disposable address. I like it very much but still prefer a home page that confines it to a single page with no scrolling down required. Old MSN content was able to be on just one page for a quick review of topics I was interested in.

The new one has it spread over many pages with pictures for each topic. Unfortunately this is one baby boomer that will be looking for a new homepage that can have everything nicely condensed. MSN just keeps going backwards. They changed their sports page to something fancy. Just try and find an article reviewing a game. They show all the statistic but no easy way to read a review. Website designers and OS coders have very different skill sets.

If I hate a show after the changes, I switch to a new channel. Same with a web portal. Unlike TV which only has a few hundred channels to choose from, on the Web, there are thousands to choose from.

If this is the way MSN works, I am completely out. I will change to anything to get away from MSN!!! I hate it!! MyMsn is a great idea and practice.

It would appear sites are being picked for me under the illusion of choice. I understand everything today must change. Is it for the better? Or is it actually worse? Companies such as MS feel driven to adapt to almost constant change because other companies feel the same compulsion.

But where in all this are the people who must actually adapt to the change? As pointed out in Ask Leo! Just as in they jammed the new MS Office down your throat. A frustrated user of MS products. Do they care about people like me? Just corporate BS shoved down our throats. But yea I agree with most every one else. At least let me enjoy old msn before the make the permanent change jeeze.

I can only hope that later on maybe I just might get used to the newest version. Well any way, thanks for allowing to share my thoughts. The simply changed the format of their web page. Any other suggestions to get back to the old MSN?

As I mentioned in the article you just commented on there will be no going back. I have a different wrinkle to the problem. It has before, and it shall again. This is no less than the third major change to the MSN. It will pass … until it changes again which, someday, it will.

How can such an enjoyable MSN turn into the worst ever is amazing. The old home page was something I looked forward to every day, now there is nothing good. Sometimes companies should leave well enough alone. More than likely that option is not available any longer.

What to do? Get used to the new layout, or look for something other than MSN to use in its place. They just really screwed up my living that I do by computer on a daily basis. Please revert back to the old homepage. Why is it they think they can just do it whenever, whatever etc etc. What the h——.

What is WITH Microsoft that they seem compelled to depict everything in primary colored generic squares? The overall appearance is both aesthetically unappealing and childish. It looks, for all the world, to be aimed at illiterates and the mentally challenged? Is THAT how they view us? Facebook has become the biggest impediment to a free and obtainable Internet. More and more sites seem to demand people login with Facebook and so be exploited by this untrustworthy entity that has basically ruined the Internet experience for me and so many other people who refuse to be used, not to mention spied upon and have everything I do there reported to the government.

It is funny, because just the day before I wrote a comment about how Facebook has taken control of the Internet with so many sites requiring people to login using Facebook — and here it is yet again!

Another site has fallen and in doing so, has become useless to me. So, I will no longer be visiting Msn and seeing the advertisements that pay for the site. Well, so far, every time I have attempted to make a comment on Msn, all I am asked for is my Facebook login, nothing else. There are other sites like this as well, Hulu for example only permits you to comment on shows using Facebook. One of my design sites recently insisted that it could only be accessed by having a Facebook account.

The outcry was quite loud, and changes were made. Come on MSN! Give us the option at least to go back to the old way. Not a fan on this new stuff…. I can read a headline faster and decide whether or not I wish to read an article than I can look at a photo and decipher what a story is about and see if I am interested. What gets me is that Msn will only allow people to comment using Facebook, a site I have been strongly against since its inception.

More and more, I have been denied easy free use of the Internet because of Facebook and I have come to think of Facebook as Internet terrorists. There is nothing new or fresh about this new msn. Their xbox system has this design, windows 8 has this design. Personally, I think its a crap design and hope they get over it fast. The Classic was the best, It look like a 10 yr old made the new one. I would never give him a job. All those pretty pictures slows down my computer more than those pretty pictures are worth.

One that I can comment on without needing Facebook which I refuse to get since they exploit you, your email account as well as report on you to the government — that illegal entity which is not supposed to spy on its citizens! I wait for the day Americans stop being so pacified like cows standing in line to be slaughtered. So, does anyone know of a better news site?

If Microsoft keeps on being this stupid…. Put your mouth where your money is. I am totally upset, I hate the new page. I agree with all above it is absolutely terrible. Change it back!!! Notice all the positive comments. The new MSN is horrid functionally and visibly. So you want access on your small screen cell phone, great. Guess MYT paid them the most money. Agreed, DC. Bring the old MSN Autos back.
