    Last November, Neowin reported that Microsoft was testing a new design for their MSN homepage. Today, Ars Technica makes known that Microsoft has finally begun rolling it out to users. The roll out will gradually make its way to 100 million US customers over the next few weeks. Microsoft is calling it the "most significant homepage redesign in over a decade." The redesign features a new butterfly logo as well as 30 updates based on loads of customer feedback.

    Among the new features are:

    TrendWatch - highlights of the day's top Twitter trends
    Hyper-local Tweets - shows you tweets based on your location
    My Cities - lets you save up to three cities to keep up with
    MSN Local - enables the display of relevant local information
    Hotmail - see your inbox on the MSN homepage
    Read the rest of the article here.

    -

    Some will see the new design when they go to MSN.com, some will not just yet.

    Someone else pointed out that you can also check it out now if it has not rolled out in your area yet, by going to the following link.

    its about time it had an update, but to be fair... MSN is just the page you dont really look at when you start IE, i actually cant remember the last time i accessed it, being a FF user and all

    I personally do not use the site, but its a lot more appealing then the original. Since its IE's default homepage, a lot more will start using it just because it looks more 2010 then the prior version.

    About time it got a refresh. That page looked the same for years.

    I like it but I hardly ever use it.

    Does anyone know how to get the new version to show up instead of the old one. The new one has been showing up then I deleted all my cookies and the old page starting showing up again. I prefer the new one. Thanks

    Delete your browser cache. The old files are still loading.
