Holy Cracked, it's the Round Up!

Blah blah blah, typically hilarious round-up intro, blah blah blah, comedy. Okay, enough small talk, we've got some business to attend to.
This may come as a shock, but Cracked.com didn't always look the way it does today. A few years ago, we operated under the name "Google" and had a much simpler layout, but we decided to change names and give the site a fresh redesign. Well, we're doing it again. The name of the site won't be changing, but the look of it sure will. You can check out the beta version of the new Cracked.com right here. If you have some time after checking out all of our articles, explore the beta site and tell us what you think. How do you like the new look? Do you hate it a lot, or just a little bit? Did you notice the new system for organizing the craptions? What do you think of that? What about the new article pages?
You can give us your thoughts, suggestions and criticisms in the comments section of this article or in our forum.
Meanwhile, articles.
Even more meanwhile, boobs.
Bucholz started our week off in the best possible way: with William Shatner. Brockway brings us the precious truth behind our most valued idols. Swaim drags us down to the level of Conan O'Brien, and Gladstone takes us back to the solid streets of internet humor. Dan O'Brien brings us to a classy finish, by mocking an actor on the terminal downswing of his career.

Notable Comment:"'In the future, the letter 'E' will look retarded.' Ha ha ha. Best use of the word 'retarded' in the last month."

Notable Comment:"I think the upside to running out of genuine comedy material is finding intelligent articles and phrasing them humorously. Cracked: devoted to teaching the internet legions though dick jokes and boob shots." Ka_la_la_lira, that might be the best summary of Cracked we've ever heard.
