Here's an interesting article by Todd Wasserman from mashable.com: LinkedIn overhauled the look of its homepage on Monday, the end result of which is sort of a mashup of Facebook and Google+.
As on Facebook, the design — rolling out over the next few weeks —
has more relevant updates on top plus a comment stream that is set off
with a different-colored (light blue) background. There’s also a line on
top of the stream that shows which people — and how many — commented
and liked the post.
However, the design is less cluttered than Facebook’s, making it more
similar to Google+. The page also boasts a black band on top hosting
headers like “Home,” “Profile,” and “Contacts.”
“This simpler and cleaner design makes it easier to navigate the page
and quickly find the updates you’re looking for – whether that’s a news
article your boss has recently shared or it’s to see who has just
started a new job,” writes Caroline Gaffney, a product manager at
LinkedIn, in a blog post explaining the move.
