First Radio 1 show site to go wide. Ironicaly its Chris Moyles

unfortunately despite using the new programme pages and all that new jazz they're still using the god awful photo galleries they've had on radio 1 for the last few years

The Jersey site has now gone live in the wide format.

You're right - and still with the horrendously small photos too. If it were me, I'd have spent a bit of time converting them all with bigger images and some AJAX or something a little faster. They do it for Big Weekend, why not their permanent site?

Another local site has gone live: Sheffield & South Yorkshire, with Northampton to follow shortly, while Sussex is now in the works.

I understand that some changes - in terms of look and navigation - are on the cards for the BBC News site early next year.

Have any specifics yet been discussed internally, and if so, does anyone in the know have any idea of what might be on the way?

Some clues here:

Looks like the North East Scotland site is finally underway again, now with a bit more colour...

Apparantly the News and Sport flash videos have gone awol tonight too.

YouTube etc are fine.

Same with me as well. Does anyone on the forum have a clue what the problem is?

Launched today are individual BBC local websites for Surrey and Sussex for the first time, consigning Southern Counties to history at long last; additionally BBC Surrey has finally made it onto the iPlayer as well.

Other local websites coming soon: Berkshire, Cambridgeshire, Derbyshire, Devon, Leicester, Liverpool & Merseyside, Suffolk and North West Wales.

Also Leeds is coming soon http://news.bbc.co.uk/local/leeds/hi/
