In praise of ... the BBC News website redesign


For so long, the BBC News website looked stuck in Web -47.0. So it's sleek new look, unveiled today, is a welcome breath of fresh air.

The new features are outlined at length in this post on the BBC News Editor's blog.

However, I'm most impressed by the wider page, better use of white space and the calmer, less cramped layout of the information (Guardian Unlimited has a not too dissimilar look).

Who cares about substance when information looks this good...?
