Just one more thought... How about having a nice short URL to get the live streams up, something like: HYPERLINK "http://bbc.co.uk/live/news24"http://bbc.co.uk/live/news24 would be much more 'viral' than: HYPERLINK "http://www.bbc.co.uk/mediaselector/check/player/nol/newsid_6610000/newsid_6 615400?redirect=6615433.stm&news=1&nbram=1&bbram=1&nbwm=1&bbwm=1"http://www. bbc.co.uk/mediaselector/check/player/nol/newsid_6610000/newsid_6615400?redir ect=6615433.stm&news=1&nbram=1&bbram=1&nbwm=1&bbwm=1 if you see what I mean... I would be short enough to pop in a signature, and not fail for people with email systems that can't cope with multiline URLs. All you need a folder called 'live' with a few redirect scripts... easy.

I just noticed whilst reading an article on the BBC News site that there was a link to watch BBC News 24 live - I clicked and it's streaming now! Does anybody know if this is a permanent addition to the bouquet of online services from the Beeb, or just a temporary thing due to some breaking news in the recent past which I happened to miss?
