Introducing Coaster101 V5

I would like to welcome you to Coaster101 V5, a complete rethinking of the Coaster101 viewing experience…made with you in mind.

V5a

We’re not advocates of “change for change’s sake.” After eight years, our rich library of content has grown to an unimaginable size. And with new posts being published almost every day, some of our best content is quickly buried. With that in mind, we set out to revamp the Coaster101 design, retaining the focus on new posts while making our older content more accessible.

So let’s dive into the new Coaster101 design so that you can take full advantage of its offerings.

Quick Tour

The homepage features our latest post front-and-center. Occasionally, we may highlight a recent feature such as an interview or article. Below that, you’ll find the next ten most recent posts.

On the left hand side of your screen, you’ll see the classic Coaster101 sidebar, which contains links to our social media accounts, recent tweets, the search bar and more.

The right side of the website contains the “discover” section. We’ll use that space to showcase some of our older posts that you’ll find at Coaster101.

Each post features social media share buttons that make sharing our content with your network easy.

Coaster101 has been “responsive” for some time now. That means the website adapts to your device, whether it’s a desktop, tablet or smartphone, giving you the best viewing experience. Coaster101 V5 takes the responsive design to the next level, offering you optimal readability without sacrificing content or quality. If you’re on a desktop or laptop, you can see the responsive design in action by re-sizing your window.

We Need Your Help

Rather than delay V5 while we fine tune the design, we want to give you the chance to give this new look a test run and report back to us.

We want to know what you think. What would you change? What do you like or dislike? Did you encounter any problems?

Leave a comment below or contact us directly. In the meantime, we appreciate your patience as we work out any kinks.

As always, thank you for your support of Coaster101. We hope this new design makes your visit to the website more enjoyable.
