Welcome to the New ABCNEWS.com

— -- You're in the right place.

Though it looks entirely different, this is the same ABCNEWS.com that you've come to trust for breaking news, investigations, newsmaker and celebrity interviews and unique perspectives on people and events around the world.

The same ABCNEWS.com, yes — but different, too. We've made our pages easier to read, given you more options for customizing the news, and provided better tools to help you find the information you're looking for (even if you're not sure what that is) and improved the technology that lets us show you what is going on. You'll get local news and weather right on your homepage, headlines organized by subject matter and free samples of our subscription video.

We made these changes to ABCNEWS.com after listening to what you've said about how you like to get your news, what you care about most and what was lacking in our old design. But don't take my word for it — see for yourself by taking our brief tour or just diving into the news, testing your knowledge and sampling the best pictures and videos of the day.

We're proud of the new ABCNEWS.com, and we hope you will agree that this is the place to go to learn what's what. Tell us what you think — good or bad — by sharing your impressions, questions and recommendations for further improvements in our special feedback message board. We'll be listening!
