You've more than likely already noticed that, as of today, EE Times has a new look and feel — our first major redesign in more than five years. While the new color scheme and homepage layout are the most obvious manifestations of this change, beneath the surface you will find much more.

The look and feel are noticeably different, but our commitment to editorial quality as our top priority remains unchanged. We continue to strive go above and beyond to inform, challenge and celebrate the electronics engineer. In fact, we are strengthening our commitment to go above and beyond to connect the dots in the electronics industry and give readers a complete perspective of the technologies, market trends and business issues that directly impact you and your jobs.

To that end, we have for the past few weeks been telling you about some new editorial initiatives that will increase the depth of coverage that’s made EE Times an indispensable source of information for electronic engineers for more than four decades. These new initiatives include:

Special Projects- EE Times will incorporate industry-wide trends by clustering stories developed across the AspenCore network to address specific aspects of a complex topic with a larger industry-wide impact.

EETimes On Air- a new downloadable radio show which offers deep dives on the most compelling stories in electronics, featuring subject matter experts from all corners of the industry.

Frontline Dispatch- EE Times will give a fresh opportunity for design engineering and supply chain professionals, enabling them to share their view and chronicle each step of a new technology’s lifecycle.

The site redesign itself is more than just a cosmetic facelift. Our new site was created using responsive design, enabling stories to render well on a variety of devices and screen sizes, including PCs, smartphones, tablets and other computing platforms, giving you the ability to access EE Times from your desk or on the go.

Other enhancements to the site include:

A new and more powerful search engine capability that facilitates access to legacy EE Times content faster and more precisely than before.

More prominent links to EE Times' sister publications in the AspenCore media network, including EDN, EBN, EEWeb, Embedded.com, Power Electronics, and others.

We hope you like what we have done and will continue to do. As always, please feel free to let us know what you think by submitting your comments in our EE Times Forum or by emailing me directly at . And thanks for reading.
