The New Pricegrabber


Today I jumped on pricegrabber.com to update some alerts I had set and noticed the new design, layout and community they just rolled live.  Not too bad at all.

There are definitely a few bugs they seem to be working out, however overall I’m really impressed.  They use the glossy & trendy new-web look with the large search box and very fast search suggestions.  The whole feel of the site is very cohesive and the community/user profile areas are put together quite nice.

One silent-yet-deadly feature that they pulled off really well is the smart tabbed-navigation for the categories/sections.  You’ll notice that they appear & re-appear as your browser width changes yet the all-important “Election ‘08″ stays put.  Gotta’ love those paid sponsorships.

These are my favorite kind of re-launches.  Where bugs are still apparent but you know they put a lot of work into the base of it.  I like knowing that bigger companies can make large scale changes like this along-side the smaller and show they’re human all the same.  Nice work guys.
