How to Use the New ABCNEWS.com

April 30, 2007 — -- ABCNEWS.com's new clean, crisp look is designed to help users find more of what they want: stories, video, slideshows and opportunities to talk back.

The site's section and show pages, like the home page, have been streamlined into four sections.

The first icon next to headlines in the Main News section tells users if they're clicking on a story, video, slideshow, or ballot. Icons that follow this first icon indicate related content.

Links to archive and sub index pages can usually be found in the Story Package or Carousel sections. Content that first appeared in the Main News section may move down to the Story Package and then to the Carousel as it gets older.

The right side of the page offers multiple options for users to communicate. Users can comment, add a fact to a story, vote in a ballot -- or suggest a ballot if one doesn't exist -- chat on ABCNEWS.com's message boards and submit a video through Be Seen, Be Heard.

We at ABCNEWS.com are always striving to make the user experience the best it can be. Please share your feedback on the site's new look and features.
