Site 3- KRGV.com – Plus I break a promise, kinda.

KRGV KRGV5′s site is always changing, the people behind the site, MPC Studios, a local design big shot. Simple designs and great looking [SEO Friendly, thats important] work, MPC produces great stuff.

News Channel 5 has to have one of the simplest designs around and the best looking, every local story has a video and they follow extra stuff online like Video Diary: Search for Kidney Donor, no one else around does anything like this. It’s interesting -to say the least.

KRGV used to have a boring static site that was almost never updated, for YEARS it sucked and was rather useless, now its always fresh and changing. Once again, I just don’t like the menu, something about it makes me think “bleh”, and yes… NEWS SITES NEED COMMENTS, why can’t people take the extra time [which isn't much] and work in a comment system.

The design changes a pretty lot, a look at http://web.archive.org/web/*/http://krgv.com shows the progress. Overall its gotten better, some things suck, other don’t… and the spot under the menu is often very messy. The footer is also BORING… :-| I’m sure someone can come up with a better use of the space.
MPC tried to jump into “Custom Website Development for Television Stations” with webdev.tv which seems to have been left behind at some point. But thats WAY off topic. ;)

Put simply, KRGV.com is by far the best local tv news site, which is why I thought I could bring in stuff about one of the only local design firms I have nothing bad to say about.

And now its time to end the MPC link love.
