DISQUS

But it has also been true that whenever you change a print paper's design, some complain. It's a valentine: people like you the way you are; never change; all that. But you have to change and unless you've totally mucked it up, then they won't lose you. It's the way a little kid reacts when Daddy shaves his moustache: You're not Daddy. But they get used to it.
The reason home page usage is going down is not really because of RSS et al but because of search and links -- Google and Drudge. Those are mass.

I like the Guardian's new homepage. It's certainly not the best out there (The Times wins that round easily), but it's a vast improvement on the old front page that just looked tired and tacky.

Great point made by Lloyd though. People just want to click on webpages -- end of story.

Good luck with the PG relaunch!
