 The Verge turns five years old this month, and we're updating our entire design to be sleeker, faster, and more illuminating. See these serifs on our logo? We're cleaning them up and spacing things out so everything looks better on mobile and works better in videos. All that 70s sci-fi orange is evolving into a new design language we're calling Pathways, bright laser lines that illuminate the stories we tell about the future. Because that's what it's all about. The Verge hunts for the inflection points that mark the moments between before and after. It might be a new device, or a groundbreaking film, or a surprising new research study. There's no evidence that this works. That doesn't mean it doesn't work, it just means we don't know that it works. It could be as obscure as a change in the algorithm, or as visible as a rocket launch. The Verge is illuminating, fast, and beautiful. Our design, photography, and video carry as much visual impact and thoughtfulness as our stories themselves. I mean, look how good we made a laptop look, even though the keyboard is a little shallow. The Verge is thoughtful, useful, entertaining, and rebellious. I wanna go fast! I wanna go faster! We follow our instincts wherever they lead. We view power and authority with skepticism and cover it without fear. And most importantly, the Verge is inclusive. Technology is a part of everyone's life, and the Verge is for everyone. Five years ago, the big idea behind the Verge was that technology had gone from the fringes of culture to the center of everything, as mobile created a new generation of digital consumers. Five years later, we live in a dazzling world of screens that has ushered in revolutions in media, transportation, and science. We have to evolve, just like the world evolved. We have to get cleaner and simpler and just a little bit louder. Technology and culture are changing each other faster than ever, and you'll find all of it right here on the Verge.
