    The Brits on the board living in London will know the old TFL website well.

    Well imagine my surprise when I visited today and it's been "web 2.0'ed".

    http://www.tfl.gov.uk/default.aspx

    I actually think they have gone way over the top with the reflections, and even use the 'classic' starburst:

    But, it is a big improvement. What do you think?

    I kind of like it, but on the other hand there is something that just doesn't particularly fit. Maybe it is the overuse of reflections?

    Interesting. Good progress over the old website, indeed.

    Haha I wish that was my site, I'd be rich!

    I agree that they have way overused reflections and that the menu is awful.

    To me it looks like someone who has read the "how to do web 2.0 in three easy steps" tutorial. Would love to know who designed it.

    The site looks nice, clean and quite easy to navigate. Not fully valid, though, but allright anyway... And it's not so slow for me...

    very nice design, i like it, you do seem to have some small minor HTML warnings on your site

    great use of colours
