Well it's a start, they're closer to the exit door. BTW, ever hear of the saying "a new broom sweeps clean?" The only way I am going to believe anything I read, see, or hear from BBC is after there is an entire change of personnel right from the top to the bottom. I don't suppose anyone in BBC facilities planning ever heard of....office partitions. But even if they had, there is probably no money in the budget for it. Everything they had was spent sending WHYS entire kit and kaboodle around the world on one junket after another. I wonder how many of them were shopping for new jobs...especially in the US. Did Anna Stewart ever find her way home after her trip to the Pacific coast of America...in Phoenix Arizona? Last I heard was a rumor she'd made a wrong turn trying to find the beach one afternoon after work and was headed in the general direction of Las Vegas.

If you select the UK edition, you should have Your Money back, so to speak. In the meantime - here is the direct link.

It seems as though the BBC has missed a golden opportunity to evolve the workplace into truly forward thinking and earth friendly place. With wireless technology the world can be our workplace. Its seems logical that in a slumping global economy we should be doing everything we can to cut commuting and consumption. It is my opinion that we use technology as an add-on to the old idea of every one being sectioned off into boxes and looking over their shoulder at the other guy in his box. We need to come out our boxes and meet in the streets of the world to solve our global mess before it is too late. Perhaps a true wireless revolution could be a small start in this direction.

Tue 17 Jun 2008 16:27:29 GMT+1 http://www.bbc.co.uk/blogs/theeditors/2008/06/newsroom_changes.html?page=4#comment5 Hi Steve,Sorry to hijack this blog slightly, but I noticed there has been a bit more fiddling with the website as well.I was wonderong where the "your money" section of the Business bit has gone, that was the only section i used to use, and it seems to have gone the way of the dodo!Other than that all I can say is you could have at least used the same furniture throughout your floorplan..... or are the nasty white ones just to differentiate between the bigwigs and the minions ;o) Tue 17 Jun 2008 16:26:03 GMT+1 http://www.bbc.co.uk/blogs/theeditors/2008/06/newsroom_changes.html?page=3#comment4 I hope that you all enjoy your new "newsroom"...It didn't affect the coverage of the network.:) Tue 17 Jun 2008 13:10:01 GMT+1 http://www.bbc.co.uk/blogs/theeditors/2008/06/newsroom_changes.html?page=2#comment3 Comment 1. A damning, and surprisingly quick, verdict on our sartorial skills. Maybe we'll get smarter now we are sitting alongside TV colleagues. But I doubt it.Comment 2. I linked to it above - he makes a good point about the case for further integrating our "ugc" user generated content desk.Comment 3. Sorry, fixed.
