How Does This Happen?

*SIGH* I saw this post at Techcrunch. I know I’ve seen previous iterations of the AOL.com page, and they did not look like this…they definately had color and creativity to it. I’m not sure what happened to make the AOL.com such a copycat of Yahoo :( , but I’m pretty sure it’s not because of lack of creativity from the Design Team.

It must be something political. Why do conflicting and personal agendas get in the way so much at work… especially at a big company?

    Yeah, safe to say this has generated a lot of buzz in the hallways and at the water cooler for the last day (and by buzz, I do not mean in a good way).
