The new NZ Herald site

definitely like the changes to the NZ Herald website. It's a lot nicer on the eye, but has the info on it more logically arranged.

Specific changes I like:

* Sections available at the top of the page
* Time stamps for latest news
* More stories have a front page extract, helping judge if they are of interest
* link for Sideswipe!
* RSS feeds easier to locate
* More interactivity such as location of polls, reader feedback and most popular stories
* Greater use of photos

On the RSS front they have wonderful choices down to individual organisations, hundreds of topics etc,. They still lack though a choice of one RSS feed which delivers all news stories, but I guess you can do that by subscribing to all 13 sections.

One quirk is a story on Australian politics appearing under the politics section. Most people I think would expect only NZ politics there.
