Amazon's new site design: what's different?
Change is in the air. Just last week we reported that eBay is updating its 1990s style design. Now it looks like Amazon is getting ready to give its online store a bit of a nip and tuck as well.
Don't expect any drastic changes. Most of the updates are cosmetic. For example, you can choose categories to search and browser through a navigation panel on the left side of any screen.

It doesn't seem logically possible, since if the first one was actually the world's hardest, how could another one come along and share the moniker? It made me doubt the name in the first place. That is, until I tried the game.
The mechanics of the game are very simple. You are a small red square, ...

How about actually getting rid of some clutter from the site? It's way too much information on one page. And would it be too much to ask to only return things i asked for? When i search for "assassins creed", that's all i expect in return. Not "assassins creed", halo 3, GTA IV and every other XBOX 360 game.
