Redesign Begins at AltWeeklies.com
As part of a larger redesign and graphic overhaul of the site to be revealed later this year, we've made some initial changes to AltWeeklies.com:
In addition to cutting down on clutter in certain sections, these changes also mark the first step towards a modified folksonomy for organizing the information on the site.
- The "Movies" section is now "Movies+TV" and TV stories have been moved there from the "Culture" section.
- Food and Drink stories now have their own "Food+Drink" section.
- The "Politics" section has been resurrected.
- The "Opinion" section, on the other hand, has been eliminated, and its contents have all been shifted to other sections.
