Hey all,

I've been checking out http://www3.nhk.or.jp/news/easy/ for the past few weeks, trying to read an article a day. It's been awsome but when I tried to go on the site today, the layout had changed. Now I just have a big white square in the middle of my screen with a loading icon.

Is it working for anyone here?

They've redesigned the website, but it works for me in several major browsers. I remember something similar happening when I opened the new website for the first time today (probably some migration issues on their side), but after forcing a reload (usu. control + F5) it proceeded to load just fine.

Good luck with the articles by the way smile

I found the issue: I had AdBlock on for NHK, which was keeping the site from loading.

Thanks for the encouragement smile

With the redesign, is it just me, or did the speed of the speech get much slower:

Here's today: http://www3.nhk.or.jp/news/easy/k100141 … 81000.html

It's so slow I don't even want to listen to it.
