Microsoft Turns MSN Homepage Into an All-in-One Web Portal in New Website Revamp

Posted on the 08 September 2014 by Nrjperera @nrjperera

If you’re a fan of Windows or ever used a PC back in the early Windows XP days, you might recognize this page. It was the default homepage of the Internet Explorer that allowed us to access hot news stories, search the web and access our old MSN account. Believe it or not, that old MSN homepage still look the same, even after more than 10 years. Thankfully, it won’t stay that way for long.

Microsoft is now offering a preview of the next MSN homepage redesign to whoever visit the website. This revamped MSN homepage actually look quite intriguing, now even I’m thinking about setting it as my default homepage.

With one-stop access to all Microsoft services, including Outlook.com, One Drive, One Note and many others, this new MSN homepage makes Windows users feel right at home. The news feeds on the homepage also allows users to customize it however they want and to add or remove topics from the homepage area.

If you’re not a fan of Google or its minimalist homepage, and prefer getting news update right in your homepage, you should consider moving to this new MSN page because it looks way cooler than Yahoo and Google combined. It’s unclear when this new homepage will replace the default old MSN page, but it’s likely to happen before the new Windows 9 preview.
