Launching new for Vision
October 20, 2008
As you may know - assuming you’ve read my blog more than once - I regularly post screen grabs and details of new BBC website launches.
Although it is mainly sites in the new wide format that I’ve been linking to and writing about - you can see a list of some of the new BBC pages grouped on my BBC Wide Pages page.
Although it doesn’t contain all of them as they seem to be launching at such a rate I can’t keep track (not with an election to cover anyway).
Well now you don’t have to wait for me to write about them or even wait until somebody on the TV Forum (where I get a lot of my info) to notice and post about them.
Dan Taylor (of BBC Vision) has launched a new and VERY simple blog that just has a screen grab and a link for new BBC Vision related site launches - this is basically anything on TV or TV related.
You can read a little more about it on his Fabric of Folly Blog or just visit it at .
This is a great idea and the site works REALLY well - it makes it very easy to find out whats launched and when it launched - interesting to see 22 launches in September (including the /tv and network launches).
I’m working on an article about Eurovision but it isn’t about the site - more about the insane idea - as well as a more generic article on the use of video trails and introductions on new BBC sites.
Oh and Dan - when are we going to see a new bbc.co.uk/topgear? I created a mock in June if thats any help?

Building something TG related

I used to spend hours creating web projects and ideas I knew I’d never do anything with - just for the pleasure of building something and seeing it work.
A new kind of band tee

I’m a t-shirt fan - I’ve got dozens of them with all different kinds of slogans, pictures, logos and assorted imagery - from bands and gigs to technology and geekery.

Imitation, flattery and the BBC
May 16, 2008
I have an a blog post in draft I’ve been putting off four about a month now that asks the question “what’s wrong with the new BBC Homepage?” The premis being that I like so why doesn’t everyone else.
More from the BBC

When the BBC started re-launching its sites into the new design language (with the big black bar at the top of the page) there were a LOT of complaints.
How do you use photoshop?
March 28, 2008
I love photoshop and have been using it for years - I have licences for home and for work and open it every day. In fact it’s one of the core apps I have open at all times.
