The new wsvn.com is officially live.
//
So I clicked around and it appears that there are a few more things to touch up here and there but overall the site has turned out very very nicely. Of course if you read this blog you already knew what it would look like 🙂
The new online digs were created, and will still be maintained, by the web staff at WSVN. The extra channels such as Real Estate, Autos etc are from WorldNow.
‘7News On The Net’ is the new webcast, it runs a little over 3 minutes and features the top news and weather. Surprisingly, no burning factories somewhere in Podunk, and that’s really a good thing. The webcast will be updated 7 days a week and it will be anchored by whichever anchors are on that day.
The news stories and feature segments now come with video for the most part, which plays in a pop-up window player, with much better, smoother quality video and has the ability to create your own play lists.
They have kept the live streaming which is linked straight to an asx file, unfortunately for now it doesn’t look there will be archived newscasts and Deco Drive broadcasts.
Looks great!! I guess they kept their streaming this far, love the site but parts look unfinish. Like the tracking the tropics, ans thier still using google search.
It looks FOX like, but better and less focus on red, unlike the myfox sites that the O&O’s use. Even Fox News Channel’s foxnews.com got a facelift. Kinda crappy though.
WHDH’s new website is launching today, too.

The whdh web site was delayed and it will debut around noon according to a poster at btvn.net
whdh’s site looks like a knonkoff of wsvn’s site
That’s because WHDH and WSVN are sister stations… 😉
Looks much improved!!!. For some reason I know I have the latest Flash but, the vid wont work. My problem.
Much easier on the eyes.
I like the site. Also on a side note.. Is it me or is Alex Alvarez looking different?
Much better, but no weather loops?
