KRDO's Web site is up


The new look is up over at www.krdo.com. Pretty nice, I'd say. Worth the wait.

They should have picked more flattering photographs for the mugs at the top of the page -- the photo the Gazette ran on Monday's TV page of Jon and Nina (at right) is way better than the one on their own home page.

And I think they ought to have more news headlines in each category. It feels a little sparse right now.

Still, the graphics are sharp and the weather pages are really nice. The drop-down menus to navigate are a nice design, too.

And finally, I like that it's www.krdo.com instead of the old www.krdotv.com (although that link works, too).

You're right: It's sparse and needs improvement, but it's 1000 times better than what they had before. That was shameful!

I heard Matt (F-ing) Meister on the radio last night promising that the weather pages were going to be much more soon. He said you'll be able to spend a couple hours looking at weather stuff. Long enough to have your wife get mad at you.

I agree,It is a 1000 times better then what they had before. I'd like to add pitiful to their old site! Now I can't wait for them to put the radio streaming on so I could listen to it while I'm on my p/c.

Great idea about the streaming audio! With the TV/radio simulcast and eventual web video elements, it'll be a real force. I wonder what restrictions they'd encounter with streaming the syndicated programming. One step at a time. It looks like this is a "soft" launch of the site, otherwise they'd be promoting it really heavily on-air both on radio and TV. They're probably still working out the kinks. Looks like they're taking a pretty smart approach by going light on promoting all the new stuff. Don't boast what you're not sure you can deliver. Let word of mouth do its thing, and when you've got it all figured out, let the whole world know!
