The BBC has unveiled its revamped mobile website which goes live today.
It is already one of the most popular destinations on the mobile web with more than 2.7 million unique mobile users a month.
The design of the mobile site, based on the broadcaster’s existing internet site, has more colour and interactive elements than its predecessor.
As part of the upgraded site the BBC will produce more specific content for sporting events such as this summer’s Wimbledon Championships and the Beijing Olympics.
Sport will play an integral part of the new site. Over the next four weeks the corporation will target football fans at matches with posters inviting them to text the word ‘football’ to 81010 for a link to its football site.
The website also includes a new section for BBC Radio 1’s Newsbeat, with entertainment headlines and pictures.
Last week, the BBC announced that it had created a version of its iPlayer catch-up service that was compatible with iPhones and the iPod Touch.
