Thank goodness I have "My Flyertalk" set up so I only have to look at it once. The downside (not to IB's benefit) is the new home page is such a hodge-podge mess to look at that I'm less likely to click on articles or links, whereas with the old homepage I did.
Cheers.
I agree.
I'm using an ipad and it took me a while to find the drop down menu to navigate into the forums. From the old version, I could click on Community or Support, for instance, and quickly find my way to a forum I wanted to check and then forum jump from there. Now I first must go into the general "forums" page, etc., so it is more steps.
In addition, I have the impression that the new home page is featuring only FT affiliated blogs and authored brief news articles rather than the content that is contributed by members through threads and posts in fora. To me, this is the heart of FT rather than the stuff that the new home page seems to publicize.
