RE: [WSG] MSN redesign
Great, glad to see Microsoft getting out the closet and embracing web standards! Now lets hope they upgrade all the other MS sites. If so, I'll start to believe in MS again, as a forward thinking company, that works with us and not against.

Re: [WSG] MSN redesign
I like it, but it leaves room to improve. They are a large company and even I can do better than that. It is nice to see that they are using standards though, not enough sites do that.
