Over the past couple of weeks, Nissan has slightly changed their website's image from a comprehensive look at the 2006 models to a more tense "here's what coming" look. The new models, called 2.0 for the most part, indicate that Nissan will be giving a new look to 5 of the current Nissan models. What would be really interesting is if they made the website into a Web 2.0 look as well. Wouldn't that make for a great blog entry.
The website is getting a little bit slower to look through as it becomes more interactive. A lot more loading, a lot more waiting, and simply more frustration as I try to navigate through the site, much like the problem I originally had with the Acura site that helped me choose to not blog about them.
The layout of the website itself has yet to change, though they do seem to keep a very close proximity with all the objects, and the website does not cover the entire browser window. It forces the reader to maintain focus on a very small spot. Tons of white space. Tons. I know the principle is desirable in advertising, not sure if it quite applies in websites.
At any rate, there does appear to be a change in direction with the site. I think it would be great if it would modify into a Web 2.0 site, but we will have to wait and see.
