A friend who obviously has too much time on her hands pointed me to a discussion on Digital Spy's forums where posters were asked the question, which is better - BBCi or Teletext?

Staying on a BBCi theme, some random lunchtime surfing found me on Sky Digi Online, a site covering news about Sky and associated channels and services, who had a piece about BBCi, with a rather puzzling screenshot.

Over the last few weeks we've been steadily rolling out the new rebranded BBCi, and today it got to stop three - Freeview. And that launch, along with the others, wouldn't have happened if there hadn't been a good team of people working away on it.

On Tuesday, the old launch seemed to have gone reasonably smoothly. Yesterday and today on the other hand...

It's pretty hard to celebrate something when at the same time all is doom and gloom thanks to redundancies, budget cuts and so on. So internally, the relaunch of BBCi on satellite probably wasn't on the cusp of many peoples minds. But relaunch we did, and I got to write another email to tell everyone how wonderful they are.

Whenever we launch something at work, I like to have a look around and see what people are saying - hoping of course that it's good feedback!

It's all change to BBCi as we relaunch on Telewest with a new look and a new logo. Warning - contains several large images!

Today Sky launched Sky Text on digital terrestrial television. The service was originally a traditional text service, has been on satellite in a 'digital' form since 2000.

Less than a month (just!) after BBCi launched page numbers on satellite, at around 4:20 today, they went up on the DTT/Freeview version as well!

Here's an interesting problem. You have a 30 year old concept. It's established and everyone knows what it is, and how its used.
