There is no sign of Cnbeta on the tom.com site to see the news, said that the page can be customized. This gives me the first idea is: Tom.com began to like some Web2.0 Web site learning began to walk WEB2.0 Road. So the link goes in to experience a, below say my experience feeling:
1, for this custom function of the page, the freshness of nothing to say, has long been called the WEB2.0 Web site to achieve. Now on the Internet such a Web site to catch a lot, but most of them are second-rate sites, such as tom.com, such as the traditional door in the domestic still has no precedent (abroad very early). If said NetEase Homepage's revision only in WEB2.0 the road to walk a small step (extremely very small step, even not be WEB2.0), then tom.com is toward WEB2.0 to take a big step;
2, for the early has been excluded from the three major tom.com, the revision is also a helpless move. Faced with the squeeze of several other major portals, the worsening Tom can only through other more thorough way to maintain his remaining users, and this thorough way is to choose to embark on the road of WEB2.0, all the user-oriented;
3, compared to the technology, content is always more important point, "content is king" is a site to survive the rule. But in this era of information explosion, a variety of content is full of the internet, those portals are also anxious to put all the information to the home page to show their rich degree of content, so we see is the kind of long and densely packed with a variety of information page. But it seems that those portals forget a very important point, "content is king" after should be "interactive", rather than let those information rigid stay in the home page somewhere. Moreover, these miscellaneous information is not every on their site users need, maybe users just need a little bit, so they have to hard to find relevant information. NetEase in the revision of the home page when a large area of the use of the tab-style navigation bar, to a large extent, save the user's time, is the first in the portal site has a better usability design, But this tom.com more thorough, will the usability further deepen, can complete the tom.com homepage custom to own personal homepage, the humanization degree comprehensively surpasses other domestic portals;
4, TOM. COM's WEB2.0 is still not done thoroughly. WEB2.0 The most important thing is interaction, although Tom in the interaction with the user has been completely beyond the domestic other portals, but his interaction is not thorough, Tom's interaction is only to stay on his content, that is not yet able to interact with foreign content;
5, in the tom.com of the Forum looked at the first revision of the home page evaluation, is almost a curse sound, in Cnbeta's comments are also almost no praise. The reason, to a large extent, is that the Chinese people can not accept a traditional portal so radical and huge changes, especially in the absence of any prior notice. (NetEase's revision also advance notice for several days) Another big reason, I think should be the internal reason of tom.com, because this revision after the release of the home page has not done enough to improve, especially the mailbox this piece, is all scold sound in the most serious. To know for a portal, the mailbox is they adhere to the user's powerful weapon, or can say, mailbox is the reason why users choose them. For such an important point, TOM. COM but did not do well in advance preparation, so scold sound is inevitable;
6, through the Tom.com home page of this revision we can come to a point of view: Tom will be the main entertainment. This can be seen from the customizable module on its home page, in all the modules that can be added entertainment and fashion news occupy a large part, and the purpose of this is to look for the difference in the development of the road, because to do news, no other portals will be Sina's opponents. So the revision of the home page of Tom is more or less a harbinger of the possible future development direction;
7, TOM. COM has done a bit of entertainment. This can attract a younger generation of users, but also will discard a lot of old users, how to make a trade-off between this, will become a topic for Tom in the future;
8. There is a process of buffering the cognitive degree of human beings, TOM. COM this revised to its users of the buffer time is not enough, it is not possible to be accepted at a draught, it can only be in the user's condemnation in the slowly accepted. The maturity of a product is not a one-time can be achieved, with the user's awareness of the promotion, with its own continuous improvement and improvement, the ultimate achievement of a mature and perfect products.
TOM. COM's revision is a bold attempt, or even a self-destructive attempt, the courage to try is Sina NetEase do not have. Hope that the tom.com of this revision can give domestic other portals to lead a direction, will be better interaction and usability to the user.
