Minyanville, the personal finance news site aimed at demystifying money, launched Tuesday a redesigned Web site that is cleaner and has fewer stories on its home page.
The redesign includes new content categories. The categories now include Business & Markets, Life & Money, Family & Finance and Audio & Video. Within these categories, readers can access their favorite content.
The site has also launched a social networking forum for investors and financial professionals. Users can build a profile and customize content based on their stock Watchlist, invite friends, blog and comment, discuss Minyanville articles and daily trading commentary, and build their network.
And there’s a kid’s area. Billed as the world’s first virtual financial community for kids, MinyanLand uses a combination of games and quizzes to teach young people the basics of earning, spending, saving and giving while having fun.
The site also includes subscription products, and a weekly cartoon show featuring Hoofy and Boo, a bull and a bear who provide commentary on business news.
