AOL today launched a completely redesigned version of AOL News that adopts an innovative blog format, combining traditional news sources, AOL programming and social news, all in an easy-to-use single-page experience.

The new AOL News site homepage features regularly updated top news stories selected by AOL's editorial news staff, delivered in a blog-style format that lets users vote and comment on each story.
