Max Gadney, head of design at BBC News Interactive, on the site's fat (but light) new redesign. They've gone for scheduling and promoting the more tabloid stuff, plus a more sensible consistency to the audio-visual stuff. Interestingly, they are stressing that "the individual journalist will have more responsibility for producing the whole package, including bespoke multimedia and interaction opportunities for the user". They're also talking about "multi-platform authoring"... As for the visual design, I'm not sure I can focus on three equal-weight columns myself, especially when they're not much stronger than the index. But it does cram more into the first scroll depth.
