I've noticed for quite a while now that www.sky.com/news directs you to
news.sky.com - Does anybody think this sounds better than sky.com/news?
I do for one, because then
news@sky.com and news.sky.com seem to relate alot more.
Just a thought!

I'm certainly looking foward to the changes coming soon, I just hope the graphics aren't stripes of blue, and are something that we didn't expect.

They need to get a standard website at Sky. It seems to be different for every channel (skyone.co.uk, sky.com/news, skysports.com etc). Always annoyed me, that.

I think it's just an encription thing. BBC News does exactly the same... bbc.co.uk/news take you to news.bbc.co.uk

I'm guessing if they were to advertise news.sky.com, you'd get thick people adding a www to the beginning.

You all seem to be getting very worked up about Sky's new train screens. Why would they change their TV graphics to these? They're designed to be noticed and read by people glancing at a giant screen whilst rushing for a train!

That much is a given, but the fact is, they are changing their on-screen look, and what they are changing them to, is rumoured to be similar to what they came up with for the Train Screens.

It is all preliminary, so it could change, but obviously people can only go with what they hear about at the time.

I was watching the paper review last night and did I hear a dog bark.

Nice to see Lisa Burke this morning doing the weather forecast from a very cold Hertfordshire.
