Times Online relaunch

Schadenfreude is wrong, of course. Even when the suffering is being endured by part of Rupert Murdoch's globe-encompassing media empire.

But anyone who has struggled to launch a new or redesigned website could have been forgiven a smile this morning if they clicked onto The Times Online. At time of writing the homepage looks fine, albeit painfully slow to load. The section homepages are OK. But dig a little deeper and you get pages like this.

Perhaps it's the latest low-fi design chic. But I think something's not working quite as it should.

Update: read more about the relaunch and the explanation that it was vastly increased traffic that caused the problems. Of course it was!
