IMDB Re-designs Its Site and Turns it Into Garbage

Had I but known, I would have made a screencap of the IMDB site, and the way it has been for the last 8 years. It was a perfect design. Along the left hand side of the page, there were all the links for the actor or individual - bio, roles, photos, etc. etc. It was an elegant, efficient design.

Now, just today - or within the last week, anyway - I go to the IMDB and see the utter garbage that is their new design.



So basically there are no longer any links on the left. You have to scroll down "below the fold" to see the links, and now they are on the right hand side. Ridiculous. And of course there are ads everywhere on the site.

Well, the ads are how they make their money - but still, the design is horrible. And I clicked on their Feedback button and told them so. I wonder if they consulted with anyone *before* they made these ridiculous changes, rather than just asking for feedback afterwards.
