MSDN Subscriber Downloads Improved
Friday, August 1, 2008 at 01:02AM For a while, it seemed like it kept becoming more of a hand eye coordination game trying to orchestrate downloading a file from MSDN Subscriber downloads. In fact, I believe one of the people I was talking to about it compared it to the game "operation" where you had to move just right to avoid killing the patient in the game. I had to laugh because the comparison was dead on!
When the MSDN group was announcing some other changes not too long ago - I said HEY! what about fixing those stupid menu's. Myself and a number of others also provided feedback and they went out to the community for a broader poll and from that revised the UI. It didn't take too long before the results were launched.
On Wednesday, they launch the new UI and it looks and works a ton better from my first test drive! You can read their announcement post here. I usually dread having to go to the MSDN download site, with the new navigation it should be much better now! Even with having to login on the fly, it didn't lose my place and make me re-navigate!
Great job!
