So are we expecting a full ITV.com relaunch? If so, the News site could be a sort of preview of what to expect later in the year.

Is there ever a period when we're not expecting a full itv.com relaunch? 16th time lucky.

With that being an old article, and with the current design being rolled out only relatively recently, I would be surprised if they changed yet again. At the moment, that isn't the biggest problem - it's the content more than anything. There's nothing on the ITV site, bar ITV Player, that makes me want to visit.

The new Britains Got Talent website has launched, usually it has an independent feel but obviously they have tried to incorporate the feel of other sites with the font and stuff. Not sure what to make of it.

The ITV News site I imagine will launch next week, they have said
mid-March so I imagine that it would be at some point then.

I know it's speculation but Tim Gatt who works on the digital section tweeted 'Next week
it begins...', although not specific to anything it could be a sign that it will be all go from
next week.

and to confirm the new ITV News will launch within the week. William Owen of Madebymany tweeted on Thursday "@wdowen: Counting down to launch of #itvnews online realtime news service by madebymany/ itvnews/ ITN, now days away" .

Just looked at the ITV News landing page where it talks about the "relaunch". It shows the teal ITV News logo alongside the News at Ten logo. Does this mean they are bringing this back or is it just a mistake???

No that's just a very old holding page used before the current site launched.

Will the regional sites relaunch? I hope so they still have the teal look even though every region now has the yellow for some time! And the Tyne Tees page hasn't been Updated with a new news story since March 7th! Although the programmes have been uploaded (Welll yesterday's has) but they sometimes bother.

That's also a problem on the national site, sometimes programmes aren't put on it annoys me!

Well they are relaunching, I imagine it will be next week as the whole idea is a rolling 24 hour news site with cohesion of updates between national and local teams.

I know! It's a shame that there bulletins are not on ITV Player.

I hope so! And yeah I don't understand why they don't put them on ITV Player it would be easier!

It would be nice! No doubt they will get it ready for a Tuesday possibly Wednesday launch. The Budget will hopefully be its first test of a live event.
