New MyPurdue

As with all technology, when I started figuring out how to use MyPurdue they went ahead and changed it. It's not that much different from the old MyPurdue, but it has changed just enough to be annoying. I was finally getting to the point where I could easily navigate through the website that I only used to confirm registrations and sign up for classes, and Purdue decided to change it so I would have to look somewhere else for each of the tabs that I need to use. At least in the old MyPurdue the font was big enough to read. I feel like I need a microscope to find what I'm looking for now.

MyPurdue is changing much like Facebook did not too long ago. They think they have a problem, so they change it over night and confuse the hell out of everybody who was used to using the old version. Of course, it will grow on me, and I will be able to figure out how to navigate through the new just as well as I could with the old.

There are still tutorials on how to use MyPurdue. I'm more of a do-it-yourself person who just figures it out on my own, but I'm sure the tutorial would make things much clearer.
