Loading ...oh god… i like it the way it is!
Cricinfo should be like test cricket… preserved in all its beauty!
But by the looks of it you guys have gone all IPL on it.
I could, of course, be wrong. Can’t wait to see it!!
The new, redesigned Cricinfo
By Will last year, at the end of May Add your comment below
Cricinfo’s production, tech and design team have been working flat out on a new design and approach. It’s nearly ready.
Here’s our editor, Sambit Bal, on the relaunch…which is due very soon.
In my years as a professional journalist and editor, I have watched from close quarters and been involved in the design and redesign of newspapers, magazines and websites. Each is a distinctly unique challenge. Newspaper designs are about the optimal use of space and creating multiple points of interest on a single page; magazines, particularly features magazines, are usually more richly visual, and their design affords the luxury of creativity and experimentation. In scale and complexity, though, nothing comes close to designing a website.
Building a website goes far beyond visual appeal. All design is part art and part science: designing for the web is a synthesis of logic, communication, technological possibilities and visual presentation. It’s about creating an architecture that is intricate, interlinked, flexible and robust. The bigger the site, the more complex the challenge. Not for a moment did we underestimate the task of redesigning Cricinfo, but while we were at it, it seemed to grow every day.
In my experience, redesigns provoke an equal mix of pleasant surprise and vitriolic hatred. But from what I’ve seen, I think it’s pretty sweet.
