1up.com blogs

I don't think there is. However, if you go to the individual ZD magazine sites (http://egm.1up.com, http://opm.1up.com, etc.), the blogs of the magazine staff are listed on the right in a column. That's quite a few of them, but it lacks some of the staff that only work at 1up. Some of the missing staffers are listed in the middle of 1up's homepage under the TGS Editor Blogs box, but other than that, I don't think there's an actual index of 1up staff blogs.

i agree that site is utter trash in terms of navigation.. worst design ever.

Would there be a way to view it without all the useless clutter in Flash? Even with RSS feeds or something?

I use the RSS feeds myself since my browser tends to slow down a great deal when viewing 1up. Here's a a link to the index of all the different 1up RSS feeds.
 
there's a link to the staff page at the bottom of the site, where the 1up staff has their blog links. and the site will be improving (eventually).

Well I use Thunderbird to get my feeds, but it looks the same to me. Wouldn't there be a way to customize the way text/images of RSS feeds are displayed? Or is there a better RSS feeds sw?

Sorry if this is a little OT, please link me if there's a nice thread for that on GAF.

Anyway, 1UP is the worst site design ever, gimme plain and functionnal any day over this Flash POS. :lol
 
1up has some of the best feature articles on the web and I really like the blogs, but the interface is really fucking bad. I know there are a lot of you guys here, and I know you're aware of these complaints. But increase the pressure on the web design staff. Interface is getting in the way of content, and that's a bad thing.

Whatever else can be said about IGN, all of their recent content is easily accessible from each "channel", and it's easy to tell what has been updated. No other gaming site is nearly as easy to figure out.
 
I think they are all really aware of it. I've heard several editors mention it, it's out of their hands I think.

Too bad, great content but I barely visit it because of the awful site.
 
You know, everyone talks about how bad the navigation is, and everyone associated agrees, but why isn't anything being done? I refuse to visit the site until it gets cleaned up (it crashed my browser 50% of the time), and I feel others might be in the same boat.

I hope so too. I avoid 1up for the same reasons. No organization to the website.
 
Hey guys, I think 1UP is just looking over at their IGN brethren and realizing that having a crappy, hard-to-navigate site design leads to Rupert Murdoch buying you out for nearly a billion dollars.

I'd leave my site shitty too, if I were them.
 
1UP blogs is clit-hanger central and they encourage it (1UP, that is). The only blog I read there is David Smith's.
 
What the hell is a clit-hanger? =O Do I even want to know?

(Sadly, the answer to the latter is an enthusiastic "yes")...

Term coined when Kinesis was "romancing" Serafitia--pretty much means that you're the usual Internet Male who clings onto a woman as pathetically as possible.
