FYI, looks like they've done some redesign on the abc.go.com site, maybe that's why they forgot to flip the switch on Chapter 2.  

Maybe, but they did put a link to chapter 2 up….. ON TUESDAY! One day before the big revamp. I'd like to give them the benefit of the doubt, but I think they just forgot.

Well if they are like my company's web development team, the “go live” on the new site was probably supposed to be Monday, but they ran into trouble and didn't get it to work, did the stop gap on Tuesday, worked all night and still didn't get it up live until Wednesday.   

And the marketing dept shares 50% of the blame because they kept changing the content they wanted on the site, causing coding changes 

Hahaha! That's probably quite likely what happened. Ah yes, feature creep and constant changes… the life of a computer scientist/programmer/web designer. :P

Unfortunate that the redesign is not better/nicer than the original. :(

I guess we'll know for sure on Monday.

I don't know what the original page looked like, but have to say that this new one looks like a page out of a scrapbook. Maybe it's supposed to be more user friendly, but I find it rather awkward.

Those blocks at the bottom with the text are what bother me the most. That's the scrapbook page haha!
