Bento Box - Front Page Redesign

A few minutes ago we went live with a new version of the main bit.ly page. Our lead designer Neil Wehrle has been working on the design for a while, and we’re excited to finally have it out.

We’ve internally nicknamed the new design ‘bento box’ after the divided containers in which Japanese food is often served. Bento improves the graphic differentiation between the page’s primary use-cases: shortening links, adding custom names to your links, posting to Twitter, and shortening another URL when you’re done. We hope you find the new design more intuitive, and we would love to hear your feedback on our UserVoice forums.

There are also a few other small changes, including the ability to specify a default Twitter account for use when posting from the main page. Enjoy!
