Been using the new system for months, I'll list the advantages I like:

It opens the friends tab when I load it automatically, easier to get to chat that way.
Chats
Game specific UI overlays (open the properties of each game to turn it off for that game)

oh, that's about it i guess, I guess the rest of it is just different
I guess the default theme looking almost identical to the skin I had for the old steam is a plus too.

Little offtopic, but I can't login to steam now and I can't go to teamfortress.com. What is happening!

E: It started to work again, damn steam..

I love the new UI. A lot. Primarily the new Webkit browser. It's glorious.

Pardon my ignorance but what's Webkit? Hopefully it's safer than the crappy IE browser that's in Steam now.

I like the new one best. Overall it has more features and a better/easier UI than before, the only problem I have at the moment is the amount of glitches and bugs there still is, mostly to do with Microphone volume etc (Sometimes the sound quality and volume massively changes when starting up some games like Left 4 Dead 2)
