Small Changes Hint at Bigger Things
The redesign of Communications Web site is taking place largely out of sight, though a clue to the coming changes is on the cover of this very issue. It's sitting discretely under the name of the publication. It's the new URL for the new site, which will launch in early 2009: cacm.acm.org.
