Newly added: more headlines, less effort

This weekend, we’ve added something new to the site’s main page: more headlines from the site’s top stories, loaded automatically at the top of the page. Previously, if you hit the “refresh” button on your browser, up to eight different top stories would load at the top of the iLounge home page. Now all of the top stories will load and briefly display, one after another, giving you the chance to see what’s new and exciting without having to reload the page.

If something catches your eye, just move your cursor over it to stop it from being replaced with a new headline. And of course, clicking on any of the stories will load a brand new page with additional details. We hope you enjoy this new feature!

I think it would be a good idea but only if there was a way to change it manually forward and reverse.
Look at cnet’s web page

I noticed it yesterday. Nice. I agree with Jonathan, though, something reminiscient of IGN’s main page would be nice. Or at least something so that it could be changed at will.

We will be adding the change at will feature very soon - it’s on our list. Stay tuned + thanks for the comments.

I think it’s better than before.

It’s a most distracting feature the way it stands. Either change it so the user has control, or make it go away… I appreciate the effort, but it’s useless right now, if not downright distracting.

Ads? iLounge has ads?

Gotta love Opera’s content blocker

But yeah.. I’d love something to change storys manually. Something like what TV.com has.
