It seem that USA Today has updated their look from a traditional newspaper style to a social network. Among the changes are the addition of a carousel feature which highlights the biggest stories, the option to read reporters cover stories, and the option to read either the "Top Stories" and/or "Popular Stories".
The question, however, is whether or not this change is a good idea? From the different response I've seen, there seems to be a mixed responce. When you take a look at the comments people had posted on USA Today's site, you find not only people who enjoy the changes, but also people who completely hate the changes. Take a look for yourself:
People who dislike the changes:

• GRSKzoo said "I dislike the new design in every respect"
• JDMVP said "To say I am disappointed would be to minimize my view."
• raclrv13 said "this new hard to follow ,cut up version"

People who like the changes:

• pittfall said "Thank you for finally stepping up to what is available online."
• patrickb said, "This is a huge improvement over the past incarnation of your Web site."
• BahamiansOnline said "Very nice site redesign."

So, are the changes good or bad? From what I've seen, it seems that most people dislike the changes. What do you think?
