Did anybody ever find out if that 2007 update was a hoax or did it just never progress?

A TV presentation site using captures off a cheap DVB card hosted on yolasite, using a substandard uninspired template. Breathtakingly original. Congratulations.

Sorry, I'm not having a go at you in particular, but I need to get this off my chest: launching "new" TV presentation sites now is so passe. Unless you can offer something different to TV Ark, The TV Room, Andrew Wiseman's TV Room or TV Live, why bother? What's going to attract people to your site over these other bastions of the genre?

Thinking of TV Presentation sites as internet radio stations gives you some idea of what I mean. There's the odd one or two that stand out for being different, unique or well-received. Then there's the chaff, the rest, the jukebox bedroom FM stations that are little more than iPods attached to an encoder.

Your site, plus the plethora of others that seem to be popping up every week, are uninspiring and in danger of being irrelevant; especially if you use dull, readily-available pre-made templates on free hosting sites. They smack of lack of effort, and look cheap, nasty and as such boring. You are trying to tread in the footsteps of others like Asa Hicks, Rob Francis, the late Simon Luxton and their contemporaries; who were documenting TV pres long before you were allowed a TV in your bedroom. But unless you can offer something original, or present it in an innovative way, you're wasting your time and yolasite's server space.

Does anyone else miss TV Home?

I may sound a hypocrite here, as TVPres.UK is hosted by Yola, but there are points made there that I agree with. However, I do have faith that sites made with things like Yola can be good, and also successful. Skyidents, for example, extensively covers Sky TV presentation, whilst RegionArk, is, and will continue to, looking at the ITV Regions of old - to my knowledge, they are unique in their mission. I intend to make sure TVPres.UK doesn't look like a slightly altered template, and hope I achieve this, also.

One thing I'll say about your site, TV World, are the menu links. The design you've used has been tweaked and changed over the past few days, which makes some of the small image links out of place, as some have images behind them, whilst others are template versions.
