MSN's Bob Visse Talks About Homepage Redesign (Plus Microsoft's Videos With Designer and Execs)
Here is a video interview BoomTown did with Bob Visse, GM of MSN Product Management today at Microsoft (MSFT) offices in San Francisco.
The new MSN homepage debuts tonight with a redesign cutting clutter, adding the ability to access both top social networking sites Facebook and Twitter, a local focus and with Microsoft’s new Bing search service everywhere.

The launch is the first major upgrade of the MSN main page in a decade, part of an overall rehaul that the software giant has been doing throughout its money-losing online services division.
Here’s Visse talking about the new MSN homepage, as well as two video interviews that Microsoft did with MSN Designer Wende Copfer, as well as MSN Corporate VP Erik Jorgensen, MSN U.S. head Scott Moore and Cyrus Krohn, who leads local programming strategy.
