We've recently re-designed Google News to give users more access to news that is the most important to them.

The redesigned Google News homepage is available in the U.S. English-language edition, and we plan to expand it to all editions in the coming months.

  • This new redesign sucks. Everything I want to read is in one column so I can't scan the page for stories as easily anymore, it takes much longer. You don't let me choose how many news headlines I want so I only get 1 or 2 headlines for every subject I have entered. I have to click to expand more. Half of the page is wasted with garbage news information I don't care about like World Cup scores. This redesign is crap, please fix it or restore the old version.

  • I hate the redesign so much. I don't want an over-personalized news experience—I read the news so I can get different perspectives on world events, NOT to get stories that fit my worldview because they're similar to other stories that I "like." I'm one of google's biggest fans, and Google News was my favorite google product (second only to gmail, maybe). Now I can't use it. Please change it back, or add an option for "Google News Classic" or something.

  • Glad I found this! I really like your video :)

    

  • I gave the new site design a test run for a month now. I like the old design better as it allowed me to scan 4 categories stories at once. If I am looking for a specific topical story the old site is much better. I prefer the dashboard design of the old stite

  • I don't like it.

  • how many negatives comments do you guys need?

    keep the "new design" for yourself , but give us an option to turn it off and go back to our loved "old design" or whatever you want to call it

  • Why fix what was not broken?!?!?

  • Hate to say it, but after 8 years of using Google News, I've decided to try out other news aggregators out there.

    The reason has everything to do with the HORRIBLE redesign. I do not find the new changes helpful at all.

  • Google News SUCKS now. I'm going back to Yahoo.

  • Bing news is a lot like the old Google News too. Disclaimer: I am not in any way associated with Bing or MIcrosoft. Just getting real tired of Google.

  • @Nanstein66 You're welcome. I ran across that site while reading a blog about the new Google News. It was a relief because now I can skim through things again like I used to on the old news.  It was enjoyable reading the old version. Reading the new version is too much scrolling and fussing about.
