New BBC homepage
The other big product that’s come out of the BBC User Experience Design team recently is a redesign on the homepage of bbc.co.uk. The key features include:
An update on the visual design to something cleaner and simpler (as well as a first step into a new, wider, template/house style which will eventually roll across the rest of the site).
A greater element of personalisation - you can choose the content that interests you by adding and removing the content boxes via the “Customise Your Homepage” tab. You can also drag and drop the content to change how information is layed out.
Better localisation - Users can now set their own location, enabling them to access local sites, weather, news, radio and TV schedules without the hassle often associated with user journeys to local content.
The page is still in beta, but you can see what you think here:

Looks good but the retro analogue BBC1 style clock seems very out of place.
Yeah the clock is a bit of a funny one, think it’s gonna be one of those love/hate type things!
Thanks for your comment
