I tried it again and it works now.

It's at home so I'll check again tonight, but it gave an error message and wouldn't open when I tried it over the weekend.

Has the mobile app been updated as part of the relaunch? I can't get it to work now on my iPhone.

Much better, thanks Mike! One other minor thing I've noticed is when I'm doing a restaurant search and I've already narrowed by cuisine, it tends to kick me back to the larger cuisine group (e.g. from Indian to Asian) when I then click to sort by distance. I can then go back and narrow it to the specific cuisine again without losing the distance sort so it's not a big deal but I thought you'd want to know about it.

Cool, Mike, thanks. On the positive side, I'm a big fan of the new video window and the audio player (maybe that isn't new but I just discovered it with the relaunch). Is it at all possible to have the video window expand out into a larger window? Your demo video, which I thought was very informative from an audio standpoint, was also an exercise in eye-squinting frustration from a video standpoint on my computer. I'm sure this isn't an easy fix, but I'm probably not the only one who feels this way.
And, one more bit of constructive feedback, add me to the camp of people who prefer to see the last 5 comments rather than just the last 2. Always like to see what everyone else is buzzing about.
Overall, I like how related stories and Outbursts seem to be more pervasively incorporated into the hub pages and the various stories I've clicked on. I enjoy the free associate aspect of it a lot.

I really like a lot of the new functionality on the new site, but while we're on the topic of favorites, how come a my favorites list appears on the Daily You page (on the tab you show above), the Music page, the Arts page (although it doesn't appear to be listing my favorites on that page) and the Dining page (although it only lists my fav retaurants, not fav restaurant events that are listed on the other pages) but not on the Events page itself?
Also, it seems a lot more intuitive to me that my "Favorite Users' Activity" tab would be called just that or shortened to "Favorites' Activity" or maybe "Favs' Activity" instead of "Recently" which isn't at all obvious to me.

Congrats to all of you for your hard work. I'm still getting used to the new look but I'm liking it more and more. Any way those pop up ads can go away?

I think that was a good call, Mike. Looking forward to the revamp!
