It is with great pleasure, and much relief on my part, to unveil the new BleepingComputer.com. Implementing the new design for the site has been a labor of love, but I am very relieved to complete it. As much as I have cursed at my screen these past five months, I am incredibly happy with how the site came out and hope you are too. There are a lot of new features on the site, so please take the time to explore. From a new dedicated news system, a responsive mobile design, and fancy tricks and techniques, I can finally say that BleepingComputer is no longer antiquated.
Some of the new features include:
- Mobile responsive design
- Dedicated news system (Let me know if you are interested in writing!)
- Much easier to use navigation system that gives you easy access to our latest content.
- Site-wide search as well as local searches in the various apps.
- Standardized template throughout the site. We still need to incorporate the forums, which we will get to soon.
Even though the new design is launched, there are still plenty of features I want to add to make the site event better. I know many of you were hoping to see a new logo, as our friend above us has grown a bit tired, but unfortunately I was not able to get it done for this release. Creating a new logo is the next job on my list and I hope to have it done soon.
As with any new software, or site, there will be bugs. So if you run into anything strange, broken, or just not quite working the way you think it should, please report them as a comment to this article or private message to myself. The home page will also look a little sparse for the first few days while we start adding new articles to the system.
I hope you enjoy the site, and if there any questions, please do not hesitate to ask.

My favorite new feature is being able to access your user homepage from Bleepings homepage. I hated having to go to Forums/My username. But now, I just click on my user icon. I also like the new look.

Yes, I like the fact that we have a more standardized template with each access to all user functions. Will be getting the same nav functionality integrated in the forums too in the near future.

Hi, what I don't like :)
I bookmarked BC long ago, in case I would never find it a gain... Thanks to all ransomwares thes days, no problem at all (Well I dislike that :) But then you had this donation campaing bugging me, even worse than ads, and you luckily toned it down after a few days... but now the silence pages are gone... so lets search. Ok let search for silenced freedom speach... Well thos announcement pages was not the easiest to find :) So I had to use my bookmarks :)
I'm not sure where I'm heading here. I dislike fiding BC easy because all ransomwares in google ddg etc, I dislike not seeing a page due to the. donate ad, and now I dislik not beeing able to find that help BC pages :) Maybe there is somthing wrong with me, since I cannot use the search function. Maybe you Lawrence can do some searches in a sandbox to avoid using older input as search terms) and tell me what I¨m doiing wrong. I think I had to use the word frivoulous (which I can hardly spell) to find the correct pages. My English law vocabulary is severly restricted :) anyway in US is the only place SLAP does not mean to hit someone.

The search at the top of the page is not finding what you are looking for? It should be using a google search engine, which is better than anything I am going to be able to build :)
