A few weeks ago we relaunched Newsbeat's website. We've made a few tweaks along the way - and now it's only fair I report back on how we've done.

The good news is that we've doubled traffic to our site - notching up five million page impressions since relaunch. Most of the comments we've had have been supportive. A few people have asked why we've dropped our reporter picture profiles and our live webcam of the Newsbeat office?

It's a range of journalism we are proud of. Our reporters have radically changed the way they do their jobs: their brief now is to do video, text and radio pieces. They're loving it and we're living it - in a multi-skilled multi-media New World. Best of all, you're using it - so thanks and keep the feedback coming!
