Yeah, like that.We're getting The Swan treatment here at ChicagoNow. Allegedly this transformation will go live on June 30th. Things are...

Google Profiles Gets A Facelift, Is Google +1 Coming Soon?
2011-03-04 07:44:00 After the revamp of Orkut, Google has turned its attention to its centralised Profiles feature. Google Profiles was launched in 2007 and allows Gmail users to establish their own public online profile with pictures and information about them. Don’t be surprised if you haven’t heard of them as most people haven’t. It wasn’t before April 2009 that users found these profiles of some use other than being an appendix of their Google Accounts — Google Profiles started showing up as search results. Soon the term, “Google me” became a reality. Google Profiles was also an important entity of Social Search which Google announced in October 2009. Recently, after Social Search got upgraded, the prominence of Profiles increased, yet there was something missing — Google Profiles looked hideous. That is now the past. Google has announced that they are giving “Google Profiles a new look and feel, making it even easier for you to control and enr...

He also said that there would be two big themes that are prominent in this overhaul. One is that a greater emphasis has been given on making the things visually appealing and the other being streamlining the design layout to help users find information of their close ones.

How to Give Your Brand an Instant Facelift
2009-08-27 22:41:00 Ever visited someone’s social profile only to find they are represented by a logo, building or their glamour shot, circa 92′?! Branding yourself online plays a key role in helping others learn about who you are and what you do. So don’t give people the wrong idea….that you are stiff as concrete or unwilling to age. People don’t connect with buildings and signs, people connect with people. And we can do an even better job of relating with each other if we are represented accurately. When it comes to online branding, remember the 3 P’s: personality, professionalism, and passion! Your blog, social profiles and avatar should be consistent but also showcase your 3 P’s! Now when I happen upon these visual missteps, the teacher in me wants to fix it immediately. Fortunately, I can do one better….give you the tools to fix it yourself, as well as a few basic guidelines to consider. Avatar: This is the image that can be associated with everythin...

Give your Car a Facelift By Arleigh Mile
2008-05-28 20:05:00 I am obsessed with my used automobile I bought from a friend. No it isn’t anything ‘flashy’, but it has been reliable, I like the colour and it is comfortable to drive long distances. Just lately, I had been seriously thinking of selling it and buying something quite new. When I went online, to see what I could find in my price range, there were so many gorgeous new or used cars for sale, I just could not decide. I thought I would buy and sell online, but after doing some sums, I decided to make my little car more comfortable, by changing a few things inside and out.I was not too sure with what enhancements I wanted, but I did know that I wanted to keep the interior and exterior of my car looking like brand new. Each year I spend a lot of my time in my vehicle and drive with my friends who also owns Australian cars, thats why I wanted more comfort, luxury and a new appearance. By doing a few small things and by rejuvenating my second largest investment, I solved my dilemma, and you ...

BMW M3 E90 Sedan to receive a facelift as well
2008-05-19 17:29:00 As many of you might know by now, BMW is in the final stage of testing a facelifted version of BMW 3 Series E90(sedan). The recent and most interesting news is that BMW is already working on a facelift version of its M3 sedan model. To us, that is a little surprising since the car has just been recently released and knowing BMW's history of refreshing their models somewhere in the middle of their life cycle(usually 3-4 years). The BMW M3 Sedan facelifted was spotted somewhere in Germany and our friends at M3Post.com managed to get their hands on some spy photos. The new M3 sedan will be getting the same LED taillights that were already spotted on the 3 Series facelifted models, but we are positive there are more changes than we can see in these first spy photos. Continued One thing that we have noticed is that the test car in these photos is sporting the Space Gray exterior paint which as of now it is only available on the coupe version.

2008-05-18 22:13:00 I was over at Starshine's blog and fell in love with her new blog template. For quite some time now, I have been contemplating a new look for the blog. I've become quite bored with the look and wanted to spruce things up a bit. I told you blogging was addictive! If I'm not reading blogs, replying to comments, commenting, researching, I'm looking for new ways to play with HTML codes and such. Errrrr...Uhhhh...That's when I'm not teaching, working, helping Hubby on the farm or anything! ;)I have to admit that I was a little bit apprehensive at first. You see, I tried before to change my template and ended up losing everything! All that hard work with links, layouts, fonts, etc...all gone. Unless you've spent lots of time labouring over HTML codes and all things related to your blog, I don't know if you'd realize just how frustrating it is to have to start from scratch! *sigh* All those links I've acquired in the past three years...down the drain (or better yet, lost in cyber...
Interesting things about the upcoming BMW 3 Series Facelift
2008-05-18 04:32:00 Here are some random but in the same time interesting things we have found out about the BMW 3 Series E90 Facelift models. According to our sources, on the facelifted E90 3 Series, the back lights don't look all that different in compare to the current models. There are still a few a small differences between them and one of them is a small offset between the components. It has been confirmed that also that they will be LED back lights. As everyone has mentioned before, the wing mirrors are larger due to new regulations. The lights at the front have "eyebrows" on them, which are to the large part unfunctional, have the aspect that they help focus light a bit better, and the light "coronas" with the xenon lights will be more "marked". The 3 Series Facelift is fully prepared for the US market with respect to diesel, as there is an opening at the back on US spec models for filling up the cat on diesel motors, so expect this car to be coming in probs all six ...

MSN/Live Search Engine gets new facelift
2008-05-08 10:53:00 There is something strangely familiar about the new live.com interface.. and a clear sign that Microsoft are starting to look at Google and see where they can emulate their success. For me, this is definitely good news.. not enough to make me switch search engines yet.. but encouraging. The problem with MSN / Live.com was never really with the interface. In fact, I'd say that Yahoo has a greater interface problem than any of the others. The Yahoo home page is still stuck in the late 90's search engine "portal" concept. The simplicity of Google's interface was one of its original attractions. It seems that Microsoft are finally starting to understand this. Further improvements to the SERPs (search engine results pages) were announce Back in October by Microsoft, with better snippets, a larger index and improved spam control. All good things. It is true the the MSN / Live.com search is getting better and if you look at t...

2008-05-04 01:34:00 Smith Street Food Centre reopens after $17.3m facelift - Singapore By Samantha Eng and Chen Meiyue While the revamped food centre makes for a cooler and more pleasant dining experience, some tenants feel it has lost its old-time Chinatown feel. — ST PHOTO: NG SOR LUAN  Brighter, cleaner and more airy. That’s the opinion of many stallholders and customers when asked by The Sunday Times to describe the revamped Smith Street Food Centre.

It now boasts more seats, better lifts and escalators as well as ramps and wheelchair-friendly tables. The upgrading took 22 months and cost $17.3 million. During this period, half the stalls were relocated to a temporary site in Outram Road. Commenting on the makeover, IT professional Paul Ng, 36, said: ‘The old food centre cannot hold a candle to this one. It used to be hot and dark, but now it is bright and airy.’ Retiree... |
