Electricpig logoUPDATE: We’ve added threaded comments to the site after several of you told us it would help tidy up discussions. It means you can directly reply to other comments, rather than tagging your two penneth onto the bottom of the debate. To try it out, just hit reply on any of the comments below and let us know your thoughts!


You spoke: we listened! Electricpig’s classic homepage is back by popular demand! There have been a ton of changes to the site in the past few months, but through it all we’ve had some fantastic feedback from you, our trusty readers. Some of the loudest shouts were about the homepage, asking for it to be reverted back to the original, so that’s exactly what we’ve done!

Since we redesigned Electricpig we’ve seen some fantastic leaps in traffic. More people than ever are visiting Electricpig every day, and we’re working hard to make it faster, busier and bustling with the latest gadgets. But the changes haven’t all been good: when we changed the homepage, it was clear most people preferred the previous, list-style design. So we’ve brought it back, with a few tweaks to make it speedier than ever.

The homepage now shows you a feed from all of our news categories, reviews, galleries and video sections. You’ll also see competitions and features loud and proud on the homepage. There’s no fluff, no padding: just all of Electricpig’s content in one place.

You can still dive into each section individually using the navigation bar, but the homepage now acts as a one-stop guide to all the latest Electricpig content.

Let us know your thoughts in the comments section below. As ever, we really appreciate your feedback and help to make Electricpig the best gadget site in the world!

    Nice to be listened to. I’d like more comparisons. Still deciding between HTC Hero and iPhone…

    Umm, may be I am just being simple.

    What’s the point of default avatars if you can’t log in and change them?

    Good site, though.
