I know you rely on advertising and need adverts to make money.
I really do not like the new style talk round up though. It is hard to read and doesn't flow as well. I skimmed it and still haven't read it properly as I don't like the way it is laid out.
It was always like getting a nice wee email from Aitch (And in the past MP) telling about funny threads, now it is like an advert.
I guess I am not your target market for them though, I wil stay here anyway - you don't need the round ups to draw me in! But I don't think you are going to increase your readership with that style of round up, it put me off reading it - and I love the round up so that is really saying something! So if it put ME off then when will it do to someone who isn't particularly interested?
Am I the only one who feels like this? Have you done any sort of feedback onw hat style (of layout - not of writing, the way Aitch writes is great) at all? I just wonder if there is a way for you to have adverts in it but have it less off putting to read?
