New interface released, its hardly ground breaking but a huge step forward from what existed previously.

Installation was painless, and took a matter of minutes. After which you are presented with an avatar to customize similar to that off of Yahoo and Nintendos Mii’s. The interaction within the customization is some what generic however the process of creating a gamer pic with your avatar is like an interactive photo shoot quite cool. Consequently adds more meaning to the point of avatar, as this becomes your badge online.

Lastly I quite like the way in which the interface navigation is split with angles. Sub nav and content come forward with depth whilst the main nav sits in the top left.

Anyway here’s my little avatar…
