Preview the New CNN.com Website That Includes Widescreen Video

Starting next month, CNN.com website will sport a refreshing new design.

The new site will offer wider (575x325) video clips and they'll will be fetching related blog posts for every article using Sphere blog search engine. [expect some traffic if you cite a CNN story]

CNN Video Website

If you would like to preview the new US edition of CNN.com, visit beta.cnn.com. The international edition of CNN.com will however be unveiled only on July 1st.

Like all other video sharing websites, CNN too has moved from Windows Media to Flash Video - so you'll no longer require the Windows Media codec to watch CNN videos inside your web browser.

CNN has also added Live news video feeds and the entire archive of news videos on CNN.com will now be available to all for free.

Since the CNN news videos are now streamed from pdl.stream.aol.com/cnn/ as FLV files, it will be much simpler to save CNN videos locally.
