After almost 10 years of featuring the same look, the MSN homepage will finally be receiving a facelift. Building off the new release of the Bling search engine, Microsoft will be updating its homepage to better reflect new online trends.
With a release data of early 2010, the MSN homepage will feature a cleaner, less cluttered look.
“Now is the time to clean up the mess on the Web — people need less clutter and less hassle to find what matters most to them,” Erik Jorgensen, corporate vice president of Microsoft, released in a statement. “Microsoft is uniquely invested in search, media experiences and technical innovation. Combining these assets to deliver our new MSN home page is a tremendous win for customers and advertisers.”
The new homepage will be closely integrated with Bing. It will also enable users to directly access their Twitter and Facebook feeds directly on the webpage. A new section called MSN Local Edition will also emerge, providing local news, weather, and events in the area.
