BBC Homepage Beta
Dec
14
Well it’s finally happened… The BBC have released a new version of their now famous homepage in beta and guess what?? They’ve jumped on the Web 2.0 bandwagon.
The home page is fully customisable and even includes some snazzy JavaScript effects. The page options are editable including font size link colour etc, modules can be dragged and dropped in to your desired position and there is even the option to edit modules on an individual basis allowing you to really see your perfect BBC homepage. I think one of the biggest points to note is the BBC are using jQuery (which is quite a compliment for the jQuery developers) for their new homepage.
This looks like a step in the right direction for the BBC and could become as popular as iGoogle did for Google. It will be interesting to see any future enhancements that are made as lets face it the BBC are only just catching up with the times and should really be leading the charge, not lurking in the middle of the pack.
Anyway go and have a look at the BBC Homepage Beta yourself.
Not only that, but they have also released the streaming options for iPlayer: http://wilcosworld.co.uk/2007/12/14/bbc-iplayer/
I will check in detail later on but the first glance is very good.
