It looks great, it’s certainly less like the BBC we are used to. Whoever they’ve hired to re-design the select parts of the site that are appearing re-designed in recent weeks – they’ve made the right choice.
My only niggle with BBC at the moment is their absolute faith in the Windows Media Player.. if they could provide a Flash based player (I don’t care if it’s Microsoft Live based or not) so I could watch things on my mac without using Parallels – that’d be great.
Gonzalez is really tearing into Nadal… maybe Murray took it all out of him.
I like where the BBC are heading at the moment. Unlike a lot of news sites, they’re embracing rather modern designs with new UI like AJAX to make things easier, which is one of the things that puts it up as a top source for news.
It is a pity like you said, however, that they continue to use Windows Media Player. I use their online videos a fair amount to catch the news, and I’m sure I’d watch it considerably more if I didn’t have to wait for WMP to slowly buffer each time.
