MyFOX Site Updates

[Weeters 1969]

The MyFOX sites are getting a "complete overhaul". The new blog software has rolled out already.

 

I'm guessing it has something to do with the new O&O package that launched in LA the other day

LIN has agreed to go with this.

WPRI and WALA already rolled out the new look... visit their sites (fox10tv.com for WALA... not myfoxgulfcoast) for a sense of what the new MyFOX and LIN sites will look like.

WISH also has the new website design, too.

 

Thank god LIN is ditching WorldNow... WANE's WorldNow site never worked right. Videos never showed up, content got lost, and Mac users got treated like second-class citizens.

 

Example: After WANE switched from Windows Media Player to Adobe Flash Player, they still had the notice for Mac users to "download Windows Media Player for Mac" (which Microsoft no longer offers or supports) after you clicked on a video (and no, Flip4Mac didn't work). Also, Mac users can't create a membership, contribute to First News, or do the polls because "this feature is not supported for your system configuration" (oddly enough, changing the user agent from Safari for Mac to to Safari for Windows overrides the settings). Hopefully the new website design will change that...

I hope this means WJW will have more video on the site. It really pisses me off!

Finally, WALA's online identity crisis is over!

I noticed WLUK has switched to the new format as well, with a different version of the domain name (http://www.fox11online.com/).

 

Could the "MyFOX" branding be a thing of the past?

I find this amusing:

 

I googled WLUK, and was prompted to click on to http://www.fox11online.com/myfox/ ... which contains the content belonging to WISH's homepage.

 

Whatever content is displayed, the look is much more cohesive and pleasing. Easy to navigate, too.

Nice redesign. Wonder when the LocalTV Fox stations will get the new look...

I cant wait the myfox sites are hard to find what you looking for the new design looks great and easy to navigate. Can't wait for Fox Chicago to Change.

The re-design looks great! The original myfox sites were terrible.

The new LIN sites are ok, WANE.com is an upgrade from the previous page which was cluttered.

 

Not sure how it's better for MAC users though.

Is WTXF going to get the new look?

So far, the LIN sites appear to mediocre at best, in my opinion. Can't say much about WAVY's, very, very bland.

Can't say much about WAVY's, very, very bland.

 

Which is trying to look likes the new NBC O&0 site. Which is a BAD idea.:bang:

Which is trying to look likes the new NBC O&0 site. Which is a BAD idea.

 

But on the bright side, at least the heading STILL reads WAVY.com, NOT NBCHamptonRoads.com!

Still leaps and bounds better than WorldNow... and a bit better than the Belo sites.
