LinkHay brings more opportunities to explore and express
Category: How Products benefit users Add commentsLinkHay launched a new interface and here’s a quick sum-up:
Features I like best
- Personal feed [linkhay.com/u/<username>/feeds]. Values it brings:
- Historical data. This helps when I need to reorganize information or refer to a statistical figure
- Effort tracking
- Friend feed [linkhay.com/friend/<username>/feeds]. Values it brings:
- Central place to follow conversations
- More spaces for content by shifting the menu up
Other ambitious features
Profile [linkhay.com/u/<username>] and Friend feed [linkhay.com/friend/<username>/on-net] show LinkHay’s ambition of growing the product to a real vertical social network by offering the two key elements which attract user engagement in a web service.
Values
Overall, the new interface brings two major values to its users:
- Increased explorability of information by pushing more visibility for the feeds
- Encouraging expressions of personal preference for seeing the web by offering the profile

I hate the new design, it forces me to use my mouse more.
