The new MSN homepage is terrible!!!!
November 6th, 2009 at 12:04
Please, please, pleeeeeeeese bring back the old home page. I miss it. I HATE the new one!
November 11th, 2009 at 06:11
pathetic.was somebodies job on the line that they had to come up with this crap.stop trying to fix what's not broke.
November 11th, 2009 at 07:09
Another case of some college grad earning there keep by screwing around with things that are not broken. Can't they keep them busy sweeping floors and making coffee runs? MS seems to be working really hard to chase all there costumers away.
November 11th, 2009 at 14:06
I hate the new msn home page, why fix what's not broken. It seems like just when I get use to something some genius thinks he's got a better way and changes it! Does anyone know if you can get the old page back?
November 12th, 2009 at 21:33
The new page flat out sucks. There is effectively zero contrast between the background & the text. Everything is moved around from the previous version, and the page comes across like a cheap company newsletter. It reminds me of a piece of junk mail that I'd throw away on the way into my home.
November 13th, 2009 at 12:38
Dont like it, looking for a new one. My wife uses the AOL home page (which appears to be what they tried to copy ) and they do the format better . along the lines of Facebook changes, "new" Mcdonalds coffee, New coke, etc. Asuccessful product that bites it due to "market research". Msn home page was a classic that should have been left alone….
November 13th, 2009 at 16:28
The marketing geniuses over at MSN claim to have added 10,000,000 users in the last year. So, what do they do? Well, the ONLY smart thing to do when they are clearly gaining market share: They CHANGE!!!
Are we a country so caught up in "change" that we can't even keep a perfectly functioning, perfectly efficient, and navigatable (not sure if that's a real word) homepage the same?
I agree with Brian, just the contrast of the background page and the headlines is lousy. It's quite hard to scan the page for stories of interest, as could be done with the traditional page. It's not a matter of getting used to it either – it will not grow on me. It is too hard to see.
This change isn't supposed to be permanent until the beginning of the new year. The question now, is HOW DO WE GET RID OF THE NEW MSN HOME PAGE and get the old one back in the meantime? I've cleared cookies, and it did not work…
November 14th, 2009 at 05:51
Thanks. I totally agree. I've had MSN as my homepage for over 10 yrs. If they keep this crappy
"update" I'm switching to another homepage forever. Yuck.
November 14th, 2009 at 14:20
I too am searching for a new page. Any ideas?
November 14th, 2009 at 14:20
I too am searching for a new page. Any ideas?
November 14th, 2009 at 17:41
Absolutely hate it
November 14th, 2009 at 17:42
switching to Yahoo today, hate it too.
November 15th, 2009 at 04:40
At the bottom of the page hit the feed back button and leave your comments.
The new msn is CRAP!!!!!!!!!!!!
November 14th, 2009 at 23:14
Go to bottom of page and hit the feedback button and leave comment.
New MSN home page is Crap!!!!!!!!
November 15th, 2009 at 20:58
i hate it too. i want the old page set up back. is that possible…to get the old format back?
November 16th, 2009 at 13:04
Just hate it! There is not enough color contrast on the page between the text and the background. The layout is difficult to navigate as there seems to be little rhyme or reason where to find things….. The old version was easy to navigate and was simple to find interesting headline stories to read. Things were accessible.
Whoever thought this change was good, is mistaken. I have used the old version of MSN as my home page for YEARS, and it has been a very user friendly site. Not any more! PLEASE give us the OLD version back….. or revamp this version to make it more useable.
November 16th, 2009 at 15:05
I have to agree…this is no improvement. Would someone please give us an "opt" out of using this new homepage? My isp is Comcast and I have never switched to their homepage as MSN "was" better…may have to switch at this point unless we have the option to "go back"
November 16th, 2009 at 20:20
My whole family absolutely hates the new msn.com home page. We want the old one back. Why won't microsoft give the users a choice?
November 17th, 2009 at 05:56
OH! I totally agree with everything you said!!! MY GOODNESS!!! The color contrast is horrible!! My laptop homepage changed to the new msn homepage, but our home computer didn't!! URGH!!! Is there ANY WAY To revert to the old!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!??????????
November 17th, 2009 at 20:40
I HATE IT, SWITCHED TO FOX NEWS
November 18th, 2009 at 18:46
This is an experiment gone horribly wrong. Not only is the product terrible, but the act of forcing it on people with no option to remove it was a serious mistake. How many negative comments is it going to take to get rid of this disfunctional piece of junk and return people to what they like and want? I have been a loyal user of Microsoft products in the past, but the method of fielding this change is a real slap in the face by Microsoft. Take all the comments above, combine them, and it still will not come close to how much I dislike the product and feel like I have been stabbed in the back for all my past support. It truly boggles my mind that a product this bad was actually released, let alone forced on loyal (previously?) customers.
November 19th, 2009 at 15:10
I agree with everyone above. Bring back my old MSN. I agree with the one above that said the old version was easy to navigate and was simple to find interesting headline stories to read. Things were accessible. BRING IT BACK OR I'M CHANGING!
November 19th, 2009 at 19:30
Don't know what you were thinking ???? I don't like it! Bring back the old one. If not I will change to Yahoo
November 20th, 2009 at 07:33
This looks like a mistake. During the day my work computer shows the original homepage and I feel so much better. This new format looks like it didn't load correctly.
November 21st, 2009 at 23:50
Please, please ! .I want the old MSN!!!!
November 23rd, 2009 at 00:15
i hate it!! so does everyone else.. so change it back. thank you
November 24th, 2009 at 03:18
MSN, listen to your user. The new page sucks. Give your users the options to switch back and see how many stay with the new page. The results will be clear.
November 29th, 2009 at 04:40
MSN as my home page for over ten years is now gone….good bye
November 29th, 2009 at 12:13
I felt the MSN hompage was functional and easy to interpret. In other words I like and used it. It was bit of familiarity in a world gone crazy with change. I don't mind slight, measured improvements, but a wholesale change is very risky. It makes me wonder who the target audience is, and if there was any testing and feedback mechanism before launching. At the very least, MSN should offer multiple "fronts" and let the customer select what is right for themselves.
November 29th, 2009 at 23:04
Ok, MSN, change your homepage back to the old format. My husband is irate because it changed and I don't need to hear his foul mouth going on and on about how it sucks.
December 1st, 2009 at 14:40
The new MSN homepage has yet to convinced me from not dropping it and switching to another homepage. Many familiar features are gone, so it seems the focus of MSN to its users. Bye!
December 2nd, 2009 at 13:26
This is Terrible. I agree – some moron college grad is gonna get fired when FOXNEWS.COM gets all the jilted MSN users. I've always used MSN exclusively. Adios MSN.
December 2nd, 2009 at 13:57
It really is the pits… the old hime page was so easy to navigate with all the relevant headlines right there in a structured setting. Now its like I'm not getting all the news I want. This isn't the first time MSN has tinkered with their homepage and ended up reverting back to the old one when everybody hated the changes too.
but for some reason Microsoft's head honchos absolutely hate the default look of their site and figure that everyone else hates it too…
December 3rd, 2009 at 13:38
I agree with everyone else. The new look of MSN SUCKS!!
December 5th, 2009 at 02:46
This new MSN format sucks! I will no longer use MSN as my home page! The old format was just fine!
December 5th, 2009 at 19:28
I will be changing my homepage as soon as I am done with this comment. I have read comments for years and never felt the need to add anything but this change has me livid and not to have an option to keep the old, better page is not a good idea…see ya later msn….
December 7th, 2009 at 21:44
The new MSN homepage is a experiment gone bad. The format / layout gives me a headache. Seems to me… MSN has better things to do. The old page wasn't broken !!
December 7th, 2009 at 23:24
I do not like the new homepage – I really liked the old one. Will be looking for a new homepage if the old one is not brought back.
December 8th, 2009 at 22:48
Fox News is now my new homepage. The new msn is the worst piece of garbage I've ever seen. Childish colors, poor contrast, navigational nightmare. What were you thinking???
December 10th, 2009 at 15:34
THANK YOU Microsoft for allowing me to discover a better homepage, FOXNEWS.COM. I would have never thought about changing until you screwed up what I had been using (msn.com) for all of my previous 12 years of internet use. What a failure, quite possibly linked to Microsoft challenging Google ?? Without an opt out to this new format of MSN.com to allow keeping the better "old" format, I am like – GONE. Bye ~~~
December 11th, 2009 at 01:02
I hate it too…. Switching to Yahoo! Please bring back Big Blue MSN!!!!!!!
December 13th, 2009 at 02:58
Did Nancy Pelosi and Harry Reid get jobs at Microsoft?It seem like they did… why else would you ram this crap down our throats without our consent or approval?
December 13th, 2009 at 05:05
hey dumb a$$ ask me first before you get into my PC, then i can tell you to leave it alone, now it's all messed up.
December 13th, 2009 at 05:07
I want money back didn't ask for this.
December 13th, 2009 at 20:32
please put the old home page back up. The new one is too hard to see with the light letters, there is no contrast. There was nothing wrong with the original home page. The new one is sure not user friendly for old eyes. Bring back the other.. Thanks, Pat
December 16th, 2009 at 03:18
I too hate the new page home page. I'm looking for a new one.
December 16th, 2009 at 06:57
I agree with the majority…I know MSN wants to copy Yahoo's iphone-friendlier page, but a lot of us want one, just one thing on the freakin internet to seem somewhat permanent, even comforting. I hate the new page "preview", lets just hope someone of decision there reads these and lets us have our old page back.
December 17th, 2009 at 05:07
Well, this sucks!
Try something for grown-up people, not some 3rd world idiot scamming westerners!
MSN, your so-called "new" homepage is totally useless, worthless, and crap!
Hire an American to re-design the page if you need to, and LOSE the "BINGH" crap!
No one likes it and no one uses it !
December 18th, 2009 at 02:47
Hate the MSN homepage….bring back the old one!
December 20th, 2009 at 15:33
I hate the new page too. I will not use it as my default page. i will use yahoo and google
December 20th, 2009 at 17:45
Absolutely HATE IT! Want the old page back asap as I am looking to see who else I will use…Anyone else but the new msn!!
December 22nd, 2009 at 11:21
Preview SUCKS. I'm going to yahoo.
December 23rd, 2009 at 01:35
I hate the new look….Call me old fashion..but I like the old version better….I guess I am going to make google my homepage.
December 23rd, 2009 at 13:26
Here is fix although it will probably only last as long as the old page is still running. You are being steered to the new site via a cookie. Block the cookie and the old page comes back. TOOLS>Internet Options>Privacy tab> Move slider to Block all cookies. Then go to TOOL>Delete browsing history>Make sure cookies is checked and click the delete button. Close IE and then reopen it. The old page is back. You are welcome.
December 25th, 2009 at 17:05
If this is what we are going to have to accept eventually – I'll be looking for a new home page too!
I absolutely hate it!
December 26th, 2009 at 17:24
I hate it., especially the contrast and it's way too spread out. I'll switch to something else if I can't find a way to get the old msn page back.
December 26th, 2009 at 18:06
Wait another year, and we'll get an upgrade that looks like the old page. This way MSN doesn't have to admit they screwed up.
December 27th, 2009 at 15:13
I switched over to my Firefox browser instead of I.E. and the old blue page is still up, for now at least.
December 28th, 2009 at 16:36
The new MSN homepage is horrible!! Please bring back the old version, I HATE this one!!!!!!!
December 28th, 2009 at 16:39
What survey?? I never saw one and given the choice I would have chosen the old version over the new one. The page is a mess and I will change my home page if I can't switch back to the old version! How about sending out a survey now???!!!!!
December 29th, 2009 at 20:42
I hate the new page and their attitude. I don't hate change, just THIS change. Like another post said, it burns my eyes. So if I can't get the old page back I will find a new home page. Yahoo here I come!
December 29th, 2009 at 20:49
I AGREE THE NEW MSN PAGE IS A NIGHTMARE!!!!!!!!!
December 29th, 2009 at 20:54
Let MSN know how you really feel. (not that they care) There is a "feedback" button on the very bottom of the new MSN page that brings up an opinion survey.
December 30th, 2009 at 06:18
I love the new page. It loads fast and I can see it on my phone. Face book and twitter are right their fully integrated.
All you old people need to get with the times. My Dad curses everytime he sees the preview. His tantrums are just like a lil baby in the check out line. Difference is babies spend more time being cute,,,you old crabby guys aint that cute.
December 31st, 2009 at 00:22
don't like the new msn home page it sucks. why can't we have the option to choose.
December 31st, 2009 at 19:11
It is terrible and Bing sucks big time and needs to go!!! Iam going to use a different home page.
January 2nd, 2010 at 03:44
The new page is just wrong. I've gone to Google and Yahoo!!!!!
January 4th, 2010 at 19:56
All of the above can't be wrong! This new layout/set-up SUCKS!!!!! I used Yahoo until they forced a n infantile, goofy page on me. My wife recommended MSN, and I was happy…till now. I'm going elsewhere until you get rid of this incoherent bullshit page.
January 4th, 2010 at 23:32
This new homepage it TERRIBLE! I can no longer easily see news highlights…and the format sucks!
Change it back to the old version!
January 8th, 2010 at 20:03
LISTEN TO THE USERS THE NEW MSN HOME PAGE SUCKS HAD MSN FOR 10 YEARS AND WAS HAPPY . NOW SOME IDIOT HAD NOTHING TO DO AND SCRWED IT UP. WANT THE OLD ONE BACK
January 10th, 2010 at 13:36
Can someone explain why one day I have the old MSN homepage than next day it's the NEW MSN page than the next day it back to the old one???
January 12th, 2010 at 13:07
how do i opt out of this msn preview page i hate it help
January 12th, 2010 at 17:34
How can we get the old home page back? If I don't find a way to do that I will be leaving. anyone have any suggestions for new home pages?
January 12th, 2010 at 18:45
I hate the new msn home page. I am now switching to another home page.
January 12th, 2010 at 21:15
The new design is HORRIBLE. It isn't easier to use and it just plain ugly.
January 13th, 2010 at 07:48
I was one of the "test cases" for the new MSN homepage last fall and couldn;t stand it. I was thrilled on December 1st when I turned on my computer and it had gone back to the old familiar blue MSN homepage. Today I'm now back with this ridiculous new homepage. As consumers what ever happened to being given the option of choice for what we wish to have in our homes and lives?
January 13th, 2010 at 23:52
HATE IT, IF IT'S NOT BROKE, DON'T FIX IT.
January 14th, 2010 at 08:39
MSN refuses to reply. I hate the new msn/preview and I have told them so. What I have ever done to them except pay for their service? I'm using MSN premium services. I may not only switch my homepage, I'm may switch my internet provider. Their new homepage sucks, BING sucks big time. They refuse to give people what they want or at least allow them an option, they are going to lose out big time.
January 14th, 2010 at 09:34
I found something that works, but I don't know for how long. If you are running MSN premium services and still have the install application "msnsusii" , run the application. Since MSN is already installed, a page is displayed with a next button, click it, the page disappears and the application closes. I then opened my browser and the ols MSN homepage was back. Close all of your browsers before running this application. I don't know how long this may work for, but it works for now.
January 16th, 2010 at 04:57
Please keep the old MSN page. The only thing MSN should change is the employment status of the developers and management that thought the new page was a good idea (and obviously fabricated their research and survey data to support it). If the aim was to make a page that works better on smart phones, then make a separate page specifically for that. If the new page becomes permanent, I too will be joining the mass exodus.
By the way MS, HOW MUCH DID YOU GUYS PAY ALL WEBSITES TO DO THE GLOWING WRITEUPS??? The story is the same everywhere. Wonderful writeup praising the new page, sometimes followed by a couple very positive comments, then followed by a flood of REAL comments from users who despise the it! I rarely post comments on anything, but the new page is SO bad felt I had to. Please wake up MS and keep the original MSN page!
January 16th, 2010 at 05:12
Your daddy should take away that phone, but HE probably fears the tantrum that ensue…
January 16th, 2010 at 05:50
This new MSN homepage is really bad, and I hate it when it shows up. It's NO GOOD and SO SLOW to navagate. Leave the old MSN homepage on, and get rid of this useless new MSN Homepage. When this new homepage shows up, I just turn-off my computer. Don't want to bother with this new-SLOW homepage at all!
January 16th, 2010 at 22:13
Yes, the the MSN format has a "less cluttered look" and that is because one has to do so much additional scrolling to find anything. I HATE it, too, and have switched to Yahoo.
Question: Why does my sister and mother still have the old format??? I want it back!!!
January 17th, 2010 at 05:22
I do believe i cannot get the old home page back. Please send me some dark glasses this white is horrible. Why in the heck did you ruin a good thing MSN OLD home page rocked. Is there anyway to format back to the old way ???????
January 18th, 2010 at 09:39
JUST SOMETHING NEW TO DEAL WITH…..WHAT IS GOING ON ……THE OLD PAGE WAS EASY…..THE NEW PAGE IS IMPOSSIBLE…..AM NOW LOOKING FOR ANOTHER…….WHY CAN'T THEY GIVE YOU THE CHOICE OF KEEPING THE OLD OR ACCEPTING THE NEW ……….GOING TO SIGN ON TO FOX………..MSN.COM NOW SUCKS…………
January 18th, 2010 at 21:07
ABSOLUTELY HATE IT!
If I wanted the less "cluttered" Yahoo…I would use Yahoo, or the really less "Cluttered" Google…then I would choose Google. When I want Clutter…which is what I chose as my Homepage…that's when I go to MSN. Not Anymore….Time for a NEW more "cluttered" Home page. Foxsports.com anyone?
January 18th, 2010 at 21:19
I hate the new local edition MSN homepage too. How do I change back to the way it used to be?
January 19th, 2010 at 03:11
Go back to the original home page hate this new one
January 19th, 2010 at 16:45
Hate the new page— bring back the old– or Yahoo here I come.
January 19th, 2010 at 23:06
I hate the new MSN home page, I hate bing and I am changing my home page to something else. I don't want someone telling me what sites to view (bing) now I can't find a damn thing. Change it back or don't, it doesn't matter. OUT OF HERE!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
January 19th, 2010 at 23:42
I hate the new home page that popped up on my computer today! The white is too harsh on my eyes and I can't seem to customize it like the other one! I don't like bing either and have never used it except the first couple days trying to "like it" but google is so much better!
January 20th, 2010 at 02:08
I guess I'll not only be using google for my searches, but my homepage too. I really liked the old one, been using it for years. Well if change is good then that's exactly what I'll be doing. Changing from MSN and setting my homepage to google. Thanks for ruining a good thing!
January 20th, 2010 at 02:54
Horrible, horrible–and Bing is horrible, too. I am changing to another site.
January 20th, 2010 at 08:18
How do we get back our old page we like? Or are we stuck?
January 20th, 2010 at 08:20
Guess have to use anothe homepage as mentioned above
January 20th, 2010 at 23:05
I'm guessing that the people behind this change will keep trying to push the new MSN page, or some variant of it, because for them to switch back would be like admitting to their superiors that they made a huge mistake, wasted tons of money, and all have jobs that are unnecessary. Make sure to click that feedback link at the bottom of the new MSN page and send them your opinion. Also, post your opinion on the MSN blog (http://msnblog.msn.com/blogpost.aspx?post=1351217... Maybe if the higher-ups at MS hear from enough of us and realize that this embarrassment ranks up there with New Coke, the Pontiac Aztek, and Cutthroat Island, they may just give us our old page back…
January 22nd, 2010 at 01:44
I HATE the new msn web page. I can still look at the old web page at work. This new page is not as easy to use. I liked getting the headline news, sports, and money on the right hand side of the page. They should give you the option of the old page or the new one. If they keep the new format then I will have to make a different web site my new home page. I have had msn as my home page ever since they started. It would be a shame if I had to remove msn as my home page.
January 23rd, 2010 at 07:06
if i cant have my old msn home page then i will go to vahoo i want to stay but not with this junk let us have it back or be a long
January 24th, 2010 at 04:06
I Hate the new msn page bring back the old one it 's a lot better
January 25th, 2010 at 21:22
AWFUL!!!!!!!!! How much, exactly, did 'Bing' shove down your throats to allow this?
Give 'Bling' their blood money back, and get your users back!!!!
January 25th, 2010 at 21:22
AWFUL!!!!!!!!! How much, exactly, did 'Bing' shove down your throats to allow this?
Give 'Bling' their blood money back, and get your users back!!!!
January 25th, 2010 at 21:25
AWFUL!!!!!!! How much did 'Bling' cram down your throats for you to allow such a thing? You guys at MSN give them their blood money back and get your customers back… and if 'Bling is YOUR thing–ABANDON IT!!! It is WORTHLESS!!!
January 25th, 2010 at 21:26
I don't know why my comments keep getting deleted…so I'll use the kiss method–Bing sucks…nice and sweet…
January 26th, 2010 at 00:58
Absolutely HATE the new homepage. My computer did revert back to the old homepage for awhile, which was FANTASTIC!!!!!! Unfortunately, it is back to the hard to read, hard to follow, new homepage etc. I find it miserable to use and I am looking at other options.
January 26th, 2010 at 23:58
SUCKS !!!!!!!!!!! WANT THE OLD MSN BACK!!!!!!!!!! THIS IS TERRIBLE
January 29th, 2010 at 06:32
New MSN Preview SUCKS!!!
Click on a new tab, open an “Inprivate” browsing window and then click on the home page button
January 29th, 2010 at 17:55
Absolutely terrible. Hurts your eyes. I will change to something else. Why break something that is perfectly good. I do not like bing either.

IF I dont have the option for the old msn home page I will find a new home page.

Fire the person who made the new change. This person is just on the payroll looking for something to do to keep his paycheck.

I have changed my homepage to aol. The decision maker on the new msn page needs to quit making up things to do while on a the golf course. Listen to your managers and customers on this one.

Where to start, the colors look fitting for an elementary school girl. There is less information less organized. People who look at the MSN homepage are looking for three things: 1. New, 2. Entertainment, 3. Searches. And a little personalization is fine to a certain degree. The original looks polished, informative, professional. This looks unpolished, less informative, annoying layed out. Maybe you could do something with the internet top bars. I have 6 stupid bars at the top of my screen. 6!! Maybe 1 or 2 nicely layed out would be awesome, maybe I can change than in explorer, but it's annoying. And guess what, when I download something, I don't want another stupid bar.

I almost forgot, Bing sucks. You would think a search engine might, you know, find what I'm looking for, instead of random crap. Here's an idea, you don't actually pay me, like the geniuses who thought of this new home page, but how about an area where I can click to narrow down what I'm searching for (which I really (really) nead for bing.
Oh and btw, thanks for everyone who finally learned to create a website for filling up the internet with useful garbage. I can remember when in College, trying to find information about something, and oh wonderful a professors lab paper or assignment popping up. Sweet, more garbage I get to sift through, because I have so much time on my hands to go threw something you just happened to put on the internet instead of email. Which is different than this…..cause when you type in some chemical reacting with some other chemical, you're not going to pull up this blog.

Please, please bring back the former MSN home page! This one is so hard on the eyes. I have a glare problem and simply cannot view the new Bling page. Why can we not be offered a choice of which page we prefer, the former one or the Bling one

Hate it, hate it, will no longer date it. I'm going to have to switch. I want proper stock exchange stats, not just "plus or minus" numbers (or is that a glitch on my page? it's so stupid, it must be). I am creeped out by the "local" info (mostly PR) that I didn't ask for; what business is it of M$ where I live? And the combination of white space and clutter! — what genius actually managed that?

I totally agree. I will be changing to something else and checking their page from time to time to see if they listen to people.
