The New FT Website - Finally!

The FT has done quite a lot recently revamping and consolidating their digital operation. I rather like the new Guardian-ish look just because it is cleaner and much easier to read and navigate. I thought it is a much better design than WSJ. Although this is really small detail - but I like how they still keep the pink colour - a nice reminder of its print presence. 

With 800,000 registered readers, the FT has been rather bold too in introducing the FT Alphaville Long Room, a forum for pundits to interact. Perhaps this is the new stage of financial journalism - the news sources themselves stepping into the pit? 

Just hope that Murdoch keeps his hands away from FT.
