WaPo’s New Format

A propos of nothing in particular is anyone else as irritated by the new online format of the Washington Post opinion page as I am? In addition to the old subdivisions (columnists, op-eds, editorials, etc.) they have added focus topics. That means that the same pieces are now appearing as many as four times on the page and you need to scroll and scroll and scroll to reach the end of the page. I have no idea what they’re thinking. It’s actually harder to read than the old format was and very nearly the opposite of an effective web design.
