Prismatic launches a full redesign and shares their awesome design process

Hey, your point is right on. We'll be adding all that stuff shortly.

Great point. It's always easy to assume context where there is none! :)

What in particular do you dislike?

1. it may go away entirely soon or change dramatically. We largely agree with your sentiment. :)

2. Yes, the meta serif turns out to be as readable as it gets for body copy, it's just spectacular! We may later have a toggle so you can select this theme or an all sans serif option...

It means there is something you can buy. Click the link and you go to amazon and if you buy whatever the item is, we get an affiliate. this is early testing of the revenue model we're working on.

We want to understand exactly what you mean. Can you please send a screenshot to feedback@getprismatic.com ?

These perms are just to be able to use your address book so that we can autocomplete emails when you email share stories.

Prismatic learns from everything you do. We have implicit signals (when you recommend, share, shave, remove, or click), and explicit signals, when you follow topics, publishers, or people. We know more about your interests than anyone, and you can expect that to be more true over time. Fortunately, we are only partially evil, so we mostly use this information to make your life more interesting, and only occasionally, we will use it to troll your newsfeed! :-P

Another commenter pointed this out, it's a fair criticism and we'll make an update to the blog accordingly.

for realz, the web needed so much love some of internally were not using it much due to utter shame!

thanks!
