BBC getting very nifty

[Berries]

I have done a bit of website development and while surfing t'net tonight came across this story. The story itself is worthy of its own conspiracy thread on KB, but shit the way the page works is cool.

Triumph of design over usability.

Interesting story. Especially for me as I lived in south ealing, and then moved to the south side of that hill - often walked from home to the reservoir you can see on the aerial and so along the route marked.

It's a beautiful place on a sunny day, and one of the bleakest most miserable on a grey damp day.

Just had another gander from a desktop... definitely more agreeable on mobile.

transitions too weird on a desktop.

Wait, there was a story?

Only about a murder. Wouldn't make the news in the Wairarapa.

That technique has been used on Apple's website for years, and no doubt other creative sites as well. It seems a bit overdone on the BBC site to be honest, it's a bit distracting having everything move and change.
