Bloglines Does UI Upgrade Too… To Left Pane

Hot
on the heels of the well-received Google
Reader re-design
, I received a tip tonight (thanks Mike Rundle) that Bloglines has also done a
slight re-design. On their blog they
note
:

“You might have noticed a few fancy little changes we’ve made to your
feed tree on the left pane today. You’ll like them even more when you learn
what’s behind the scenes!

  • We no longer update the entire left pane when the unread or “kept as
    new” counts change. Now the counts update in place with a fading yellow
    indicator. The result is a faster, more pleasant way to cruise through your
    feeds, especially for those quick on the hotkeys.
  • We’ve decreased the time between automatic updates to your unread counts
    so you don’t have to press the “r” hotkey quite so often.”

It also appears to be a different typeface and a slightly ‘fancier’ look.
Some nice ajax touches. This is just on the left navigation pane though –
the actual reading pane stays the same. It’d be great if the ajax changes could be applied
to the whole screen… maybe they’re making the right pane next year’s upgrade 馃槈 (kidding)
