Chris Peacock, the executive editor and vice president of CNNMoney.com, writes about the upcoming changes to the business news website.
Peacock writes, “You’re busy and want to quickly find what you’re looking for. Ease-of-use is at the heart of our redesign. With a streamlined navigation, you can easily drill down into sections to get the stories, information and advice you need.
“You like photos. Our stories will be much more visual, with richer photos, high-impact graphics, interactive story telling and high-resolution video. Along those lines, we’re also introducing an innovative ‘tablet view,’ an alternative way to view our most important stories. See them all arranged on one screen, and tap for a quick read.
“Many of you are markets junkies. Accordingly, we’re debuting a new market tracker right on the home page, putting the most important metrics front and center, including world markets, futures, currencies and commodities. And of course, real-time stock quotes.
“Our markets and investing reporting is evolving too. You’ll get more fast analysis on what’s moving markets and more investing ideas from a wide range of dynamic contributors. We’re also unveiling an entirely new section from Fortune: Term Sheet follows the big money from Wall Street to Silicon Valley. Spearheaded by renowned writers Dan Primack and Colin Barr, Term Sheet will track venture capital, private equity and mergers and acquisitions.”
