New Disney.com Offers Networking for Kids

Posted in NarniaFans.com at 11:51 pm by Paul Martin

Get ready to join a new social network! As I said last week, Disney.com has been hard at work creating a new website re-design. Taking inspiration from MySpace and Xbox Live, they have created a very large site that will allow for social networking.

Just as Walt Disney did with the entrance to the theme parks, Mr. Iger says, they wanted to create a “wow factor” when users first enter the site. Mr. Yanover’s team organized the home page by subject for adults and by character for kids. They also created six categories covering preschool; boys; girls; older kids and teens; families; and older Disney fans.

With this, Narnia fans will have yet another, albeit official Disney website, way to communicate. Rest assured, we’ll be there as soon as it’s ready to go! Watch for it!  See also the Wall Street Journal for more on the new Disney.com!

Walden Media, Disney Launch Re-designed Websites

Posted in NarniaFans.com at 3:49 am by Paul Martin

Walden Media’s new website is currently online, and is a much improved design over the previous one, with a nicer forum software running on the site. It displays easier navigation, and is now up to date with most of their projects that are in the works. See their new site at walden.com

Disney is also going to be launching a completely new website design on January 8th at the Consumer Electronics Show. It will represent more than a year of work in designing a newer, more interactive website for Disney fans, that should make Disney.com a great place to be. Let’s hope that the navigation is much improved and that the site can bridge the gap between Disney and their fans even more than ever. When the site launches it will replace the current one at disney.com

Perhaps some Prince Caspian info will be available on each of these sites as production ramps up!
