RE: Homepage/Search Menus
We're doing significant tweaks to the homepage and the search menus. You'd be surprised at the new user confusion when trying to figure out where to go from the homepage. The old users - they know how to operate the site; newbies to the site, it needs to be a bit simpler, yet still work fantastic for the oldies. We think we have the ticket for that.
The old bottom search menu should be back shortly. That one came out a bit before its time.
here's the idea for a few things coming up:
Homepage - more market data and market news; general cleaning up of it to make it much more useful to go to; and addition of a big, sexy videos section. Should see all this developing/being released in the next 7 days, I'd expect.
Search menus - they're going to be big and easy to use as you've seen; however, the results page isn't finished yet (hence the confusion). once it is, you'll have a single choice to make - quote or boards (ihub entirely). from the results page, it'll be very search-engine like and you'll be able to click any number of options - subjects, videos, full-text, members, etc. Many of these options, a huge percentage of people dont even realize exist in the first place.
