New MediaCityUK site lets you see the construction progress live! Update: not any more…

Update: For the past few days the semi-live feed has been replaced with previously recorded footage - but it's still a big improvement.
The official MediaCityUK site has been re-vamped with a holding page that lets you see what is happening right now on the construction site. It's a welcome change from the quite boring and slightly weird previous website.
Just don't hang around for any longer than 30 seconds, or you'll just be watching the same clip over and over again! The movie is not a continuous live feed - but will re-load with new footage if you refresh the page.
The new site also links to a new MediaCityUK brochure, which looks a bit nicer than the old one, even if it has very little new information. How-Do reported earlier this week that MediaCityUK has appointed two new creative agencies to re-vamp the website and deliver some new promotional materials. So far, so good!

Not a lot of MediaCityUK news to report since the ITV bombshell, except perhaps this article from the FT about the positive impact MediaCityUK is likely to have on Salford and the surrounding areas. The article also provides a quick introduction to the local housing market - useful if you're looking at relocating to Salford. Mar 26, 2009 - 11:04 PM
Debate about the BBC's staff relocation packages continues to rumble on and on - Liz Hunt at the Telegraph says, "I can't be the only taxpayer with northern credentials who feels insulted by the implication that having to up sticks from the South East is akin to an enforced relocation to Mogadishu or Harare." (full article here). Meanwhile, Andy Spinoza at How-Do offers some relocation advice to BBC staff - "Some media people will find the value, community, and friendliness on offer in the likes of Monton and Eccles more appealing than the fancy nick-nack shops of Didsbury..."
