One month ago, Gawker Media launch a full-blown re-design to all their blogs including Lifehacker and Gizmodo. Rather than going for a traditional post-above-post blog layout, their designers tried to reinvent the wheel. Although the new layout has received plenty of criticism from readers, I actually found the revamp quite refreshing. A handful of bugs, some compatibility issues, and slow speeds are partially to blame, but I’m sure developers are working to make improvements quickly as possible.
Like the original, this template features a two-pane interface with a full article on the left and a list of scrollable recent posts on the right. With a little jQuery magic managed to even get all the instant loading features working without having to force users to refresh pages. It also threw in support for comments and search. Working with the latest versions of Chrome, Firefox, Internet Explorer, Opera, and Safari.
This released for WordPress template, which appropriately named Qawker, into the official theme directory. This code is entirely open source, so feel free to make changes or improvements.
