Back To Basics: CBS SportsLine Relaunches With Streamlined Design; Sports Fans Will Appreciate Simpler Interface, Faster Loading Pages --.

FORT LAUDERDALE, Fla.--(BUSINESS WIRE)--June 24, 1998--CBS SportsLine (cbs.sportsline.com) unveiled its new, streamlined site design which reduces download time and provides faster access for the millions of sports fans who visit the site. CBS SportsLine now features fewer graphics and easier, more convenient access to sport pages, highlights, scores and top news stories.

The redesign improves navigation of CBS SportsLine by utilizing a more consistent, user-friendly format. As part of the new design, major sports and special-event site links are located above the masthead. Feature areas such as Chat, Fantasy Sports, and Contests are linked directly below. The JAVA scorebox, daily poll and links to other prominent site areas such as Women's Sports, Superstars, and SportsLine Worldwide are found along the left column. These new design elements have been incorporated into the basic format of the pages, which features the lead story in the center and other top news in the right column.
