The National - new layout, pants or what ? Oct 13, 2010
Don't know if you look at it on line or get it locally but

WTF have they done to it ????????????

The content notwithstanding, the layout at least made it feel like a sensible newspaper, easy to move around etc, but this evolution :lol:

Is this the result of handing over the reins of common sense to a government committee, or Emiritisation at its best ......

Have not seen it. Used use the iPhone app daily whilst on the throne, but that has stopped working as well!

Both the National and Gulf news (and the BBC News page) for that matter have gone to horribly laid out webpages from perfectly nice ones. I dont know whether there is someone who actually compares both versions before they go live with new webpages...

Try the new 24/7 app, its not worked since download on the IPad or Iphone.

7Days is the best, flicks like a newspaper on the throne, but no more use after that unless a desperate bog paper famine.
