New Today programme site's post-match interviews

11 June 2008 , ,

There's a new look to the BBC Radio 4 Today programme's website. Gone is the bizarre Soviet styling, to be replaced by something a bit more blue and funky. Stalinist to Cameron-esque? It would be churlish to note the coincidental synchronisation with the swing of the opinion polls at the moment.

A couple of additions seem worth mentioning: a box for 'REACTION FROM AROUND THE WEB' (ie blogs) on the homepage, plus feeds from del.icio.us and Twitter accounts; and the rather odd spectacle of Sarah Montague's video review... which resembles a footballer's post-match interview in front of a board of sponsors' logos, and is equally enlightening. 'We're mid-way through the second half, I've thrown it to Nick Robinson, he's dropped in a blinding anecdote...' You get the idea.

Worth noting, too, that Evan Davis is back blogging again, this time under an intriguing address: /blogs/today/evandavis. Which surely leaves open the prospect of /blogs/today/johnhumphrys in due course? We can but hope.
