If you view the new Google "News" from a desktop browser with a narrow width (well, narrow for these days--1024 pixels, so I can actually have other windows on my screen), the "content" takes up about a third of the page. The other two thirds is wasted.

Even within the "content," tremendous amounts of space is wasted, and less information is present than before.

- Everyone runs their browsers maximised don't-cha-know...

I really don't, yet I've been noticing over the past few years my browser window width has been steadily getting wider to accommodate modern website design.

I disagree, sites are becoming taller. I assume because more and more people have phone and tablets as their primary browser device.
