Why Does Sharon Patch Look Different?

Site undergoes some minor cosmetic changes.

 

No, you're not losing it.

Patch looks different today. We did a quick visual nip-and-tuck to the homepage to make it even more user-friendly. And we've moved a couple pieces of furniture.

For those keeping score:

  • We tweaked some words in our navigation bar to save space (e.g., "Traffic & Gas" is now "Commute") 
  • We moved the weather icon next to the Patch branding so you can find it more quickly.
  • We moved, well, you closer to the top. (Our "shout stream" is now front and center to show all your comments off.) 
  • And we made a few things prettier. 


While the site might look a little different today, we still offer the same robust coverage of everything happening in Sharon. That was, is, and will always be our mission. We hope you'll let us know what you think of our tweaks - drop me a line or offer a comment below.

Looks good! Keep refining & tweaking, some people might complain - people hate change - but it's always good to keep things fresh versus let them go stale.

The What People re Saying column is in a good place. I think a bit of color or more distinctive print for the header would help. It doesn't stand out as well as it might & you have to search a bit to find it as it tends to merge in with the restn of the page. Otherwise good changes!

Sometimes change is good...sometimes bad.....If it ain't broke....don't fix it...this site just got a bit more confusing and frustrating.....Kurt is correct in what he posts....
