This is a huge opportunity for something else to replace them.

It's simply terrible. Really disappointed. I usually scan the site 3x5 times a day.

- functions more like a blog than an aggregate.

- emphasizes sponsors and sharing over the actual headlines.

- prominent sponsor section forces more headlines below the fold, only one or two relevant articles are displayed as a result.

- Newest headlines look like and are placed like Adwords.

- Newest headlines are squeezed so narrow it takes 6 lines of text to say 2 lines worth of information.

- barely any contrast between content and links so the content is now part of the "clutter" they sought to avoid.

- I just blocked(!) Sponsors and Hiring from the page, leaving a big white hole between the content and Newest.
