Nieman: Poynter's looking for feedback on its redesign

For its 35th anniversary in November, @Poynter is redesigning its website. And it wants your input: http://j.mp/dq30xr

Opening up your website redesign to public feedback before you’ve even decided what content is going where is either incredibly brave or the worst idea ever. I’m leaning towards the latter, though I respect their attempt to turn their redesign into a teaching moment.
