Web editor Julie Varnau of World Radio Switzerland wrote to share the news that the public broadcaster “relaunched our newly Big Medium-powered site today to rave reviews.”
WRS is the English-language arm of Switzerland’s national public radio outfit, the Swiss Broadcasting Corporation. The site’s clean and clear design puts Big Medium’s multimedia features through its paces, featuring podcasts of World Radio programs, photo galleries of related topics and an inline radio player for individual stories.
Congrats to the World Radio Switzerland team on the launch.

DesknotsMore and more, when we refer to mobile, what we really mean is “non-traditional computing devices and environments,” a stodgy mouthful that really boils down to
not the desktop. We need a new term for our sprawling landscape of devices.

Making StuffThe iPad is a device suited for sitting or reclining, which certainly makes it a device of contemplation, and yep, that's the perfect state of mind for reading or watching a movie. But it's a mistake to think of it as "only" a new-fangled book or tv screen. Contemplation is not the same as passivity.

Hi Josh,
I know you are please with nice BM implementations such as this site. Congrats on that!
I especially like the design of the site...especially how the links flow into the two columns on the home page. Is that effect achieved by CSS just using %links% or does the design require the second column to use the %morelinks% widget?
@Carey: The design uses the <%links%> widget for those two columns of links. This page offers a tutorial for how to do this: How can I display link lists horizontally or in columns?
Hope that helps!
Josh
