MSN homepage's new look

it won't even come up for me, lol so i dislike it at the moment

Get a real ISP. Just kidding

Thanks for the joke Tech.

But FYI even if i had a different ISP MSN would still be my homepage.

Will not load for me either. >

I use Google for my homepage. Not much to load so it comes up super quick and it has the search feature which is the only thing I ever use with any homepage.

I have the google toolbar for quick searches and a popup blocker.

Same here!

news.google.com here

The new page is nice. I was thinking about making it my homepage.

Think it looks messy...Not my kind of site

what about about:blank and shortcuts to the most important sites?

After surfing for some years, I came to this site...

MSN did improved alot. I like the new themes & colors. Very easy on the eyes.

I use start.earthlink.net for my homepage (only think it's available to earthlink subscribers). It skins itself based on my local weather. kinda cool

I have news.google.com for my homepage. I like it because it has a lot of news and from many sources. But I rarely use a homepage anymore. I have links to pages that I like to visit alot an just click on them and voila I am at the page.

Y'all are crazy. I use WinCustomize.com as my homepage!

i get MSN access as part of my ISP's DSL package..so i just started using it in the past couple weeks, and .. well.. i love it!!! everything about it.

the msn look is pretty good, i think. but i have more to compare it to then just the msn.com page itself.. with MSN access you get integrated address books and email all that jazz and the graphics are similar throughout. for being a webpage, the graphics and the usability of it makes it feel like i'm using a program off of my own harddrive, and to be thats big. i dont like going between a few different screens that all look different. its tight and clean and professional.

bit of advice: ditch the MSN software and just use IE. I too am a MSN customer but that MSN sucks memory bad.

Christ! i never realized that. with groupwise up 24/7, though, its nothing unusual.

Well I have MSN 8 and its no better.

Just upgraded to MSN9 with the Accelerator. Looks fine loads great...geez...I sound like a beer commercial...anyway...I've never had any problems with MSN...not that it even matters...it's not like I'm going to sit here and stare at the MSN homepage all day (I do that at WinCustomize) ...as long as I get online without getting bumped off I'm a happy camper. And so far this camper is happy.

But man is that MSN accelerator fast!...There were pages coming up before I even thought about them...heck...I didn't even have to use my mouse or keyboard...it went right to all the links I wanted to got to and even typed in all my info when I needed to...all I had to do was sit back and enjoy the ride!. MY Isp is better than your Isp!

i have msn 8.. wonder why it came up as six. after i posted that i noticed my regular explorer runs at 29,000. not all that big a deal. i end up using both anyhow, msn's browser doesn't support ftp folder view.

could be worse, we could all be on netscape.

heh heh heh. pointless fact, but i was at my dad's yesterday and he asked me to help him price up a computer. i threw him towards an athlon 2800 with a gig of ram and a 500 watt power supply. (all he wants to do is tape backups ! ). its gonna costh im 400 bucks. not bad for a fast freaking system. now if i can get him to turn it into a server...

I've also found that if I type in www.msn.com it takes me, instead, to skeech. It is some sort of joke, or is skeech actually apart of MSN? I find www.skeech.com to be distasteful at best, and hardly comes close to what MSN.com used to be. >

I don't know what you are doing but if I type in www.msn.com it takes me to msn.
