Design 2, because of the search.

It's neat... although I probably wouldn't think to cycle through it myself.

I like Design 1 better, but I think that's mostly because I don't like
that part of Design 2.  To me, it almost looks like the same content
repeated.  At a glance, it feels like Design 1 has something more it
want to tell me... but that may be because it actually does (since it
has some real content). :-)

I like the footer of Design 1, you should really keep that.
