site updates

Looks like today method has finished up some of the changes to their new site which they'd been planning! (And I love the "method is feeling pooped" quote in the upper left! Hysterical! Roll over the 'pooped' to read their cute statement.)

They've gotten some beautiful new imagery to go along with their products section. You can now peruse the products via scent, type, or browse all. Selecting scent will give you selections consisting of green + herbaceous (whew! Did I spell that right?), citrus, floral + fruity, fragrance-free, watery (a weird one) and gourmet! Choosing type will give you aircare, all surface, baby + kids, bathroom, body care, hand care, dish, laundry, omop, and specialty. And guess what's back? (No, not aroma spray, yet!)

The method t-shirts have returned! Yay! $15.00, in "method" and "cleans like a mother" varieties. They only have men's shirts at the moment, but I'm sure the women's are on their way! I can't wait to finally order a method shirt! Check out the new site additions for yourself!

site update

Just a quick update on the method site. While Sarah had mentioned that updated sections would probably start appearing in late May; it now looks like that might be pushed back a small bit. But never fear, method's just wanting to make the best site available to you! And I feel rather assured that when new things start popping up, the method advocate sign-up and t-shirt order sections will again be available. These are the two items I get a lot of questions on. Time and patience, time and patience. (I know, it's hard! I have NO patience, myself! Trust me, I know.)

I also hear they're working on improving their blog. Perhaps they'll give ole' method lust a permanent link in their sidebar! That would rock! (Uh, hint-hint!) More news as it becomes available.

new site!

UPDATE G. Lie over at method had this statement to make concerning the new site:

"thanks for your post. i work at method (hence lowercasing everything) and headed up the redesign of this site. just want to let you know that this is really the soft launch of the new site. there's actually a bunch of new features we're adding on top of this first phase launch. expect great things within a few weeks - it'll really act like a totally different site than even what you're seeing now. stay tuned!"

Sounds great! Thanks for the info.!


Previously
Have you seen it? method has a new site up! How cool is that! (Pretty cool!) Unfortunately, due to my fiasco of a Tuesday, I didn't even realize until this evening! (I know, I know; how can I even call myself the man oh' method lust if I don't notice these things! Please forgive me, forgive me...) so be sure to head on over and check it out! I'll be posting more on it as the week progresses.

And OH MY WORD, check out the little method squeaky green crisp apple otter that is just too precious for words! He pops up on the front page... I just wanna squeeze him! (Yeah, don't go any further with that, ok; just don't...)

method of buying

What do you think of method's new buying, well, method, on their updated website? Like it? Loathe it? Don't really feel anything towards it? (I think they make medication for that kind of thing, ya know?) What do YOU think?.. I mean about this new storefront for method; not what you're going to have to eat tonight... or wear tomorrow (I'd suggest the red, by the way. Always a great choice! Trust me.)

in with the new

NEW

OLD

Take a closer look at method's new site, and you'll notice something big! They've redesigned a majority of their package labels! From cleaning sprays, to creamy hand wash; it's been relabeled. You can see an example of the old and new cleaning spray labels above. What do you think? Is it an improvement? Too simple? Perfect? Liked the photo style labels? Give your opinion!

An interesting note - method is known (at least to me) for using lots of lowercasing. I mean, take a look at the method profiles, those people even write in lowercase! I think it's a career requirement over there! Ha ha! So it's surprising to me that all the titles on the new labels are in caps. Perhaps to make them more immediately noticable? You'll also notice some new terminology on select products. The method glass cleaner is now called 'best in glass', replacing 'blue sky'. And 'all surface' replaced the term 'all purpose' on the cleaning sprays. - Just some FYIs.

Look for more detailed posts concerning the new packaging, and site soon.
