We'd like you to tell us what you think of the new look websites at www.channel4.com/bigbrother and www.e4.com/bigbrother.
We'd like to know what you think of the design, tone and features. If you could add something new to either of these sites what would it be and what don't you like?

All your feedback will be collected at the end of the series and used to help us make an even better website for BB9!

As for the rest of the question, I dont like it seeing as the BB commisioner told us the redesigned webpage was the reason we couldnt have internet streaming this series.

I dont like the 'updates' either...the LUT is much better (tho yours dont appear to be beset by the same technical hitches as we are).

I do like the ides of the YOU DECIDE bit but would be better if it showed a tally of the votes so far.....plus you can vote more than once so that makes it a bit daft....

Oh and I didnt know about the E4 website so will have to look at that later....but if people are uploading videos and then posting on here 'look at me on there' is that not a bit dodgy?

They're Ok...not fussed about them one way or the other tbh....Clicky links on the homepage would be better than one liners with no info though!

I'd prefer to have live on-line streaming than a new webpage.......and even if I'd have had to pay for it I would've....BB and no streaming seems a bit 'half a job bob' tbh!

Hi,

This is just in relation 2 c4 site, didn't know there was an e4 site!

I'm not a fan of the new style news. The one liners don't tell you enough and there's too many of them.

The old site was brilliant, couldn't fault it.

Love the purple too.

purple, purple everywhere.

Stop trying to add things and fix what people have been complaining about for years.

No amount of gadgets or gizmos will make us forget how bad some of the things around here are.

During last summers Big Brother we could watch the previous days HL show via the website. There doesn't seem to be that option this year. Not everyone can access 4oD.




Thanks to the internet it is now possible to be extremely well informed and completely wrong at the same time

Not liking it at all I'm afraid.

Too much advertising on the video's they often make up the biggest part of it.

Not enough information on what has gone on or is going to go on.

Ridiculous headlines that have no link to the story behind them Confused whoever thought of that needs a career change!

Surely the BB website is the place to find out the latest information, not digispy or the local bookies!

Sorry to be negative but you did ask. Smile

We have been asking you to change things years ago, why now, anyway here goes


The "Home" page for www.channel4.com/bigbrother
All the things down on the leftside are pointless get rid just looks messy.

These are the only things that should be on the home page
1. Bigger pics of all the housemates, instead of having them at the top of the page have them lower in the page.
2. Links to other BB sites should be on the leftside of the page
3. Internet streaming link on the rightside
4. Viewers to vote on something to the rightside
5. Advertisements at the botton of the page!
6. The purple links thing should be right at the top of the page(go to point 1)


Going back to point 3.
Why aren't you taking full advantage of the internet? we would be happy to pay £10 - £20 for multi camera screens to view online.


Smile

Rubbish...

1. News section is now a waste of time!

e.g. Denise flits
Day 15 - Thu 17 Jan 2008, 18:54 PM

I mean what does that tell anybody?

Another daft examples, with no pictures, explaination etc...

Alarm: We Don't Have to Take our Clothes Off
Day 14 - Wed 16 Jan 2008, 09:40 AM

Why bother posting anything at all!

And don't get me started on these:

Amy is waxing her legs
Day 15 - Thu 17 Jan 2008, 19:22 PM

John's singing!
Day 15 - Thu 17 Jan 2008, 14:52 PM

Victor is shaving
Day 15 - Thu 17 Jan 2008, 13:51 PM

Latoya's in the shower
Day 15 - Thu 17 Jan 2008, 12:20 PM

Anthony has just been to the loo
Day 15 - Thu 17 Jan 2008, 05:12 AM

"Anthony has just been to the loo" - I mean really, every living thing on this planet does this at least a few times a day, how is this news?

Ok, so maybe your trying to make up for the lack of live feed, but I'll address that in a moment...

2. No live web feed!

I'm sure you've got the message on this one already, but here's my two penneth'

It inflames the fans that, for a reality show, your not letting us see what is REALLY happening. You don't even add pictures to the news articles (See above) The live feed on E4 is very poor! Cue cuts in sound, shots of inanimate objects etc (No, not just the housemates, salt cellars and the like). I mean, you've always done it, but this time is the absolute worst! If anything interesting happens, for example the SAS task, you cut the sound and cue up static shots then only show the (Slyly edited) version of events on the Highlights show. That smacks of ratings manipulation to me...

Before you say that I'm going off topic, the website is the mainstay for major fans and the live web feed is an integral part of that! Excuses about it not being possible with the redesigned website, just doesn't cut it! If thats the case, give us back the old website and the Live Web Feed.

3. Postings, videos and other content on the site.

Text is often poorly edited, badly spelled and unpunctuated. I'm no scholar, but at least I try!

Videos, that do not show the content they advertise. Videos that say not available, but are quite capable of spooling adverts every few seconds.

Poorly arranged content, that makes no sense and is hard to find at the best of times. I miss the section that told you what shows were on when, eg BBLB, BBBM. And I don't mean the small section (that I found once but could never find again) that tells us what shows are available. We used to have a list of times and shows updated on a regular basis.

Ok, that's it for now, there is more but I don't think you guys ever listen anyway.

I stopped voting for the contestants 4 yrs ago, when you started messing with Nominations and the edited highlights became so twisted it was a farce.

I didn't watch Standard BB on TV last year at all, in protest at the state of the show.

And it looks like you've now killed the last few remaining things I enjoyed, namely: The Website and the Live web feed.

Goodbye Channel4 website!

Ha, I tried to recommend a different website and they moderated my post!

So, as I was trying to say above ^

I have found the last bastion for BB fans:
