Ask HN: Feedback on our beta justin.tv redesign

5 pointsabstractbill2 comments

We put out a beta of our redesign of justin.tv channel pages yesterday. I'd love to hear feedback from the Hacker News community.

To see the beta version of a channel page, just add "/beta" to the end of the url - for example:

http://www.justin.tv/help (current version)

http://www.justin.tv/help/beta (beta redesigned version)

First of all I want to say that I have used justin.tv a lot during the NBA season. It was awesome, so thanks to you guys.

Secondly, I like the redesign which IMO is much better than the previous one because of a few reasons:

1) Bigger screen are devoted to video which is why people use the website 2) Of course less ads, which, will please a lot of current users. 3) Less scrolling, better website IMO 4) Grey background is way better than the black one.

I think if you can have an on/off button for chat, it will greatly improve personal experience, because I think not a lot of people come to website to chat with others, but to watch.

Good luck.

There is an on/off button for chat; it's just under the chat menu now. Obviously that's somewhat difficult to find.
