I completely agree with Robert. Less marketing, more technical
information targeted to the user group.
I think the diagram could be a little bit larger and the blog post
smaller, so that the lines meet in the middle ;)

Flink is no fancy hipster app, our users are either sysops running it on a
cluster or developers programming against APIs.
I think the new website will convince this target audience.
I agree with you that aligning the vertical separators might help visual
structure of the page. I think we "only" need to center the vertical
separator between the getting started and the blog/community section.
The positioning of the first line is fine, in my opinion....

Hi Ufuk,
I really like the idea of redesigning the start page. But in my opinion
your page design looks more like a documentation webpage than a starting
page.
In my personal opinion I like the current design better, since you get a
really quick overview with many fancy pictures. (So if you wanna dive in
deep, you can check out things in the documentation or/and wiki).
Moreover I have some design issue. Can you align the structure that there
aren't as many overlaps. Here you can see what I mean:

This is only my personal opinion, maybe I have a wrong idea about starting
pages.
Best regards,
Felix

I think we may have to remove the term "Language Integrated Queries", I
think that is trademarked by Microsoft.
Otherwise, +1

+1 very nice comprehensive overhaul of the website. I'd suggest to
merge
this as soon as possible. We can incrementally fix the remaining
issues
and
add a twitter feed to the front page.

Hey all,
I reworked the project website the last couple of days and would
like
to
share the preview:
http://uce.github.io/flink-web/
I would like to get this in asap. We can push incremental updates
at
any
time, but I think this version is a big improvement over the
current
status
quo. If I get some +1s I'll go ahead and update the website
today.
