Bossip, i visit your site daily, more than once. This new design is cool and all but you all need to fix the bugs! It's slowing down my computer, when I click onteh links to the articles and try to click the back arrow to get to the homepage, it either takes FOREVER to load or does nothing at all.
This is really starting to annoy me, I used to be able to navigate thru the site soooo freely.
Please get it together ASAP, b/c I need my Bossiop to be fully functional...otherwise, PLEASE go back toe hte old site!
Thanks!

Then you probably have a broke down computer with not enough system requirements.

Give us "iPhone choice!" Do not like mobile wap.bossip.com. IPhone is powerful enough to handle the original webpage. Generally speaking, canned mobile web solutions are pretty bad. Nytimes had to revise their app multiple times before getting it right, don't be afraid to admit you are driving away readers with wap.
AmJe - 14 years ago
I don't like the new look...it moves waaaayyy too slow and the font is VERY hard to read....and VERY small...if you're going keep this format at least make it easy to read... that bold and small font is the worst.
Tutti Fruitti - 14 years ago
I was really enjoying the bossip site until you came up with this garbage. The web designer you chose has much to learn. Things should be better not more complicated. A the age of 60 plus I am not ready nor mentally capable to go back to school to get with this program!!!!!!!!

I liked the old site better. There is no next to go to or the previous page. I'm for change but make it user friendly. Please don't keep this, if you do, you will lose another reader.

its hard to navigate through the website i liked it the old way

If it aint broke dont fix it!

iFelt @home with the previous site, now iDont know where anything is?
dirtyjerz - 14 years ago
Oh shit , I jus seen my comment n i guess the comments aint censored no more. i guess now its LOL@ me for writin like i got to get around the filter when it aint filterin nothin...O well at least thats one good thing about the new site, they was really goin over board with that editin bizness recently.
dirtyjerz - 14 years ago
naa this ish look like trash...mad cheap and unprofessional lookin. wasnt nothin wrong with it before idk why it had to get changed like that it was fine how it was. this looks messy and cluttered up, Real talk when I first came on the site i was like WTH Where am I? forgot i even was tryna go on Bossip and i hit the back button and had to check again where i was at! U kno that aint a good look! the design looks like somethin made by a student in a basic internet website for beginners design cla$$ or some isht. (LOL@bossip for filtering "class" becuz it got "ass" in it *SMH*) definitly not feelin the new site at all, u done f-u-c-k-e-d up bossip
Wanda - 14 years ago
The new website sucks.
Too busy, too much going on and too many distractions.
I would like to read the articles and not be distracted with all the side attractions thats going on.
I hope the new site is a trial version cause I hate it.
tre - 14 years ago
All that Henney on the front page is not a good look while surfing at the office! I know everyone thinks Im a lush! Dont mind new site, but relax on the alcohol front and center.
Leslie - 14 years ago
I do not like the new site at all. The picture quality is low, and it seems as if you all are trying to self-edit now... One of the main reasons I visited the site was its brutal, uncut honesty. I would laugh so hard at your writer's interpretations, wishing I could meet the mind behind them.
Now it's dry...humorless... I don't like the font, the color scheme...anything. Please go back to the old Bossip! You might lose some of your most loyal fans.
Hopefully this is just an experiment.
JUDY - 14 years ago
I like the layout enough but what I dont like is the liquor advertisement in the background 24/7 its kinda of ghetto dont you think?
Gil - 14 years ago
No i dont i like the older one better. there's too much stuff going onn and the white background make me tear up for no reason.. i do like the font you used for post titles though get it together bossip
The Bone Ranger - 14 years ago
I like the new look as we leave this year & enter a new year & decade. Some people are not receptive to change & I like how to is more easier to navigate & access subjects
I actually like the new design, it looks more professional.

****I like the set up but i dont like that u now have to check on every post just to see the story...i used to love bossip for not doing that when i wake up i look at my gossip n go about my day....BUT NOW I HAVE TO CLICK ON EVERY POST TO GET MY NEWS ANNOYING I MAY START LOOKING AT OTHER CITES!!!****
Amera - 14 years ago
I would like the site better if the fonts were readable. The headlines would look better if they were bold and the tags were a size bigger. I know working with blogging software can be tricky, so it's all good. But the white background is making my eyes hurt.
Chris G - 14 years ago
I hope you didn't pay for this........
Black Walnut - 14 years ago
I like the Hennessy background and that's about it. The word filter is the absolute worse. Some words aren't even curse words and are still blocked. Though there are ways around it but who wants to go thru all that trouble. I don't even bother reading the comments when I see all those asteriks, trying to figure out what the person was "trying" to say can be frustrating.
magwe - 14 years ago
I like the old site better easier to navigate..but once you get to a story there should be an optionto go back to the main page. If I look at 10 pictures, I have to click back 11pages to get back to the main page and that gets frustrating. Good work on a new look though
StrictlyBusiness - 14 years ago
I can appreciate the attempt at updating the site, but I can't figure this site out. I haven't even been able to view post from previous days?
Mr. Cool - 14 years ago
BOSSIP should figure out what is the most appealing part of their site based on their visitors’ opinion and should use this as the baseline for the upgrade of the new site. I give the new website design two thumbs down.
Mr. Cool
P.S. The best part of your site to me is the hidden identity visitors' comments. Your new design takes away this focus and takes away the simplicity of the previous site design.
Arnez K - 14 years ago
WHY? I mean you can't even see the older entries. Or is that the point? Are you trying to kidnap us? We can see all the older entries if we miss a couple of days. With this format all we can se is one page. Black folks always messin up a good thing, well at least you finally got a "offical" Hennessy endorsement. Next up, KFC,Newport cigs, Colt 45 and Cadillac (if u should be so lucky :)
Teri Stitt - 14 years ago
I have to agree with others - comments should be on one page. Actually it would even be nice to have a "respond to" button for readers to respond to specific posts.
Teri Stitt - 14 years ago
Bossip, the formatting is off. Paragraphs are being cut off.
WordtotheWise - 14 years ago
It's very nice. Yes, I will most definitely have to get used to it. I like the links to the other blogs on the right, and the layout is very nice.
However, Bossip, I hope you got rid of that filtering system. It's horrible. I understand you want to clean up the language and all, but having to retype posts suck!
Juice - 14 years ago
Change? This is why I don't have a computer at home. There was nothing wrong with the old format, but because everybody is changing the way their site looks every other day, week, or month, u had to go and jump on the bandwagon too. Well I guess I won't be back at this site after today. And my other favorite site for celebrity "keep up" has been down all week. No wonder I don't wanna look at the Internet afta 5pm.
Lolah - 14 years ago
ehhh, just gotta get used to it I guess. But i also guess you gotta compete with Perez to get those big money movie ads like he does. Now if only mediatakeout could be updated, their site be looking like one of those fake websites
NavyLady - 14 years ago
Why fix something that isn't broken??? I liked the last "look," because it was very much so simple. The world should be more simple. IMO.
NYWOMAN23 - 14 years ago
YES BRING BACK THE COMMENTS ALL IN 1 PAGE THEN I WONT COMPLAIN. OR YOU MIGHT LOSE ME AND MAYBE A FEW OTHERS AS READERS. @DOUBLE REALLY YOU DONT LIKE MEDIATAKEOUT. I DO. N I MIGHT JUST STICK TO THEM IF BOSSIP DOESNT GET IT TOGETHER
Some Advice - 14 years ago
I actually like the layout of the site. It looks "cleaner".
However I HATE that you can only see 10 or so comments at a time. I understand ya'll are trying to get clicks, but it's irritating having to click back, back, back just to see comments. I think this will ultimately lead to less comments on posts, because it's time consuming trying to read others' comments.
MizASterling - 14 years ago
I understand the need to upgrade, and the reality is, humans are creatures of adaptation. Meaning we learn to deal with our environment,but the fact that you can't even read all the comments? What's the point if you can't converse with your fellow followers?
The comment section is enough to have me disappear. I mean, it's not cool when you can't even find your own comment, let alone find the humor in someone else's. I say keep working on it, or go back to your old design.
Double - 14 years ago
Yeah, this is a mess.... I can't get past the first page and there is so much going on...I went to MediaTakeout...and I really can't stand that site. Lets get it together Bossip..It's a nice look...but needs more work.
RELLIE RELL - 14 years ago
Damn its bad enough ya'll dont post your new info til like NOON! but now this will make your follower go to other sites. good idea to change the website but like TYln said, better web designers are needed asap. this looks like ONE BIG CLUSTER F@*%
Nilizor - 14 years ago
Where is the "next" button?? Or is that all the news that you guys have to share today??? Its a little Cluttery! Other than that I like it!

Jay - 14 years ago
It is only "cluttered" and hard to move through because it is new, ie Windows XP compared to Windows 3.1. Site looks great and a lot more streamline, great job bringing your site and not blog to the 21st century.
JUJU - 14 years ago
I love it.. nice clean look.. I didn't like the old layout
P DIDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDYYYYYYYYYY - 14 years ago
Thsi site sucks.... All they do is recycle info anyway and try to come up with funny headlines that are really NOT funny.... mostly misleading.
They never have any real news and they always lie about their "exclusives".
They will write anything for a dollar and kiss the obamas ass so much I am afraid their dry ass lips are gonna fall off.
LOL............... They are being pimped for cash!
They pick on the wrong people like G union, I wonder what their social life is like.
One thing for sure is that they are mostly black women writing this garbage because no man would take the time to hate on so many black women so often.
This site is sad and is doing its best to keep up with real blog sites that is why they ditched the word press blog.
They are like the ghetto cracked out TMZ! LOL
Oh and I am a black man just in case you were wondering!
sdedee - 14 years ago
