New 女生小视频 is devoted to innovation, and occasionally we聽need to turn the mirror on ourselves. It is more than a decade since the magazine has seen significant changes, and even we聽had to admit that parts
of聽it were looking a bit jaded.
We know from talking to you,聽our readers, that you love the聽magazine and aren鈥檛 looking for wholesale change. So we hope you enjoy this first issue of a modestly refreshed New 女生小视频.
First off, we have slightly updated the design, with what we聽hope is a fresher, brighter feel. And we have created a dedicated 鈥淰iews鈥 section between our news reports聽and in-depth features. This聽brings together your letters with comment and reviews on science, culture and society.

We have an exciting roster of new columnists, too, starting today with Annalee Newitz on novel tech. (Keep an eye out for James Wong on food myths, Chanda Prescod-Weinstein鈥檚 adventures in space-time and Graham Lawton stalking the environmental front line.) There are also now columns in the culture pages, kicked off in this issue by Jacob Aron on games.
For a bit of light relief, our expanded 鈥淏ack Pages鈥 feature a聽cornucopia of delights. Besides聽old favourites Feedback and The Last Word 鈥 now Almost The Last Word聽鈥 we have a weekly crossword, plus a new puzzle (good luck!) and quick quiz.
Over the next 10 weeks you can also learn how to be a 鈥渕aker鈥, in聽a聽course designed for all ages. On the very back page, there is now a light-hearted Q and A slot. Do please let us know what you think of the changes by emailing me at: editor@newscientist.com 鉂
