What do you think of the redesign? Tell us what you think in the comments.

People are creatures of habit, enjoy repetition with few welcoming change. With that philosophy in mind, some “Negative Nancy’s” are sharing their feelings, in 140 characters or less… most notably being Kevin Rose, co-founder of Digg.

Rose isn’t standing alone as Chris Sacca, famed venture investor, was a little more comical critical of the new look.

The criticism isn’t just limited to people with Internet fame, as thousands of everyday TC readers are jumping on the “we hate the new look / logo” bandwagon.

Too be fair, there are those who actually like the TC redesign, and welcome the modifications to the blog.

We’re sure that TC knew what they were getting themselves into, as they have a blog post titled “Redesigning TechCrunch: We Picked This Logo Just to Piss You Off“. Well congrats, as this seems to be the exact sentiment being shared on Twitter.

In the post Feldman talks in depth about the controversial logo:

“I love it, though that’s no accident: we went through many, many options with Code & Theory before finding one we liked. It’s bold, simple, and versatile. It works in any context — from a tiny monochrome icon to a mosaic on a poster. It fits the TechCrunch brand perfectly. And no, we didn’t build it in Minecraft. We used AOL Paint, which comes free on the AOL CD and has this sweet UltraLogoMatic2000 feature.”

Personally, the logo is the only part of the re-do I don’t like. Actually, for the most part it just feels like an everyday WordPress site, nothing more, nothing less.

Sacca, Google’s Head of Special Initiatives, may have gotten tired of dealing with Verizon and various spectrum issues.  He’ll now do a bit of angel investing, possibly in cooperation with Ev Williams (of Twitter fame) and Paul Graham (of Y Combinator).

Matt Marshall, who noted those relationships, also guessed at what gave Sacca his big reason to leave: money.  Like many Googlers, it would seem that the Head of Special Initiatives simply got rich enough to do whatever he wanted, and he’s now following a non-search interest.

Still, unlike some other recent departures, we’re not sure that Google is going to be too broken up about this one.  Valleywag has routinely insulted Sacca’s (lack of) ability and drive, and today Owen Thomas remarked, “That Google planned to hire a ‘director of other’ who would engage in similar pointless visioneering while outranking Sacca was almost certainly his formal cue to leave.”

Oh, well.  It will, at least, be interesting to see if Sacca’s angel investing ever brings him back into Google’s path.
