Boston Globe relaunches Boston.com
Michael Gay November 5th, 2007
As we’ve happily proclaimed, 2007 is Lost Remote’s Year of the Clean Site. Boston’s top-rated website relaunched today with a new look on the homepage. The site is another in a long line of site clean-ups that we’ve been tracking here at LostRemote. boston.com’s biggest improvement is probably the increased width, since their page was stuck in a narrow template for quite a while. Story pages include a very nice features sidebar that pulls users into other site content. boston.com has also begun using a Brightcove video player. The new look appears to only affect the homepage right now. You can contrast it with the old look that you can still see on the News page.

About time! I was really hating the old design.
(Now I just have to wait for UnionLeader.com to be redesigned. That would REALLY make me happy.)

we’re rapidly working out the kinks and making the video players play nice throughout the new design. it’s going to be a little bumpy at first, but cool stuff coming soon,,,
