And I like it a lot. In fact, they are stealing one of my ideas by adding color to the market data section. The charts of the market indexes are now on a blue background with red markers for down days and green markers for up days.
Newspapers don't carry stock tables anymore, those columns of data about each company's stock price. Publishers are saving money on ink by not printing them anymore. However, I believe that if they made them interesting by adding color, it would draw in readers and advertisers would pay for ads in the stock table section. Newspapers could use green for a closing price that is up from the prior day, red if it was down. They could use green markers to indicate a new 52 week high, red for a 52 week low. Color coded underlining could be used to show unusual trading activity.
That rich, globe trotting sparchaser could back my idea and we could bring the newspaper industry back from the brink of death!
