At Sky News we are proud of our video. With the best reporters in the business and bureaux around the world, we bring you breaking news, the latest headlines, and original, distinctive and compelling reports.

Now you can see this video in an exciting new Flash format. Our video player offers a range of options which reinforce our reputation for being at the forefront of innovation. Improvements include the facility to build your own news bulletin; by selecting individual reports you can construct a dynamic playlist of items. These can be watched full-screen if desired. The material is divided into sections: Latest Video, Most Watched, UK News, World News, Business News, Politics, Technology and Showbiz.

Our search facility is much improved, with around 10,000 videos on offer. And for prospective advertisers, we are offering the opportunity to connect with the user through pre-roll and related content.

It's intuitive and easy to use. But don't take my word for it. Please click video from the left-hand side of your page, or click on any of the individual videos to enter this new world.

Or join Executive Producer Julian March on a tour of the page: (using our new Embed function)

One other feature we've introduced this week is the option for Sky digital subscribers to be able to watch Sky News live on their PC, via sky.com/news. To do this click Live TV/Events from the options on the left of the screen. If you are a Sky subscriber and already have an account with Sky.com, you just type in your username and password to watch Sky News. If you do not have a My Sky login, there is an option to register. If you are not a Sky subscriber you can still watch headlines and key live events.

We are committed to constantly improving our service. These are the latest innovations, but there will be plenty more in 2008, including a whole new video-rich site. Thanks for using Sky News online. We hope you have an enjoyable Christmas and New Year.

I saw the note from Moe in London and I think that Moe is correct but also misses the other side.
Israel left the Gaza strip and Hamas are still firing rockets in to Israel from the Gaza strip. Firing them at the homes of civilians, and in some cases killing babies and children.
There are two side to this story Moe and not everybody is aware of that.
So yes, maybe Sky should have a day by day account of who did what in Israel and the Palestinian territories, but I think it would not serve any good, because both sides are attacking each other.
7 years now the Palestinians have been fring rockets in to Southern Israel, they have the Gaza strip for over a year, so why do they do it if they know they will be attacked, unless they want to provoke Israel?
Either way you missed the other side that was also not reported

I watched your video about President Bush "Squirming" at the Israeli girl singing.
NO SQUIRM, NO bad reaction, in fact at one point you can see him say good.

Sky news opinion of his behaviour is not news. It is also a lie, WHY, WHY, WHY do you do that?

I do not mind a joke about peoples behaviour but an out and out lie is a bit much

COME ON SKY - KEEP IT REAL

Hi, i always assumed that Sky News was an impartial news channel. However over the past several years my access to the internet and other news channels has given me food for thought.
Last night 6 Palestinians were killed by Israeli 'military action' this story has'nt even made it onto the world news section of you website, yet alone been given airtime.
During december 68 Palestinian civilians were killed, in January the number is 19 and we still on the seventh day. During the entire year of 2007 11 israelis lost their lives. Your coverage is blatantly biased and we can only assume that your brainwashing the British people into forming opinions which match your own.

Could you explain the Sky News comment "Kylie Minogue received her award ....." for being an inspiration to millions of other cancer sufferers". What inspiration ? As a family we are involved with cancer charities. My wife had breast cancer, one sister died from breast cancer, our family are part of research into breast cancer at Christies Hospital, Manchester. One of my wife's closest friends (Pauline Heaton) is the Secretary of the Pat Seed Appeal a charity which has raised millions for Christies. My daughter works in a Breast Cancer Screening Unit. None of us are aware of any comment made by her (Kylie) which would justify "inspiration". Thousands of women suffer from breast cancer, many due to lack of mammagram facilities or not having the courage to visit a Screening Unit. Rather than publicty for her come back, publicity for all women to have a mammagram could go part of the way to justify her award. Yours Don Heap

Sir
Being relatively new to the divine givings underneath the world of sky, not only is the site the very best insofar as individual interaction, but provides "Kool & The Gang" the very best tools in order to get the latest and provide the latest.
The inclusion of video streaming amongst the many other such rollover facilities further allowing humble users like my self to keep abreast of developments as they happen and at time best suited to view.
Not only am I proud of the world of sky, but very much look forward to the PES 2008 release as I my self prepare for a "Celebration".
To that end, I would urge everyone to wish everyone at Sky News a Very Happy Christmas and Prosperity for years to come.
God Bless You & Thank You.
PS: I could'nt find the register link on the Live TV/Events, or could that be my internal system error?
(You are truly worthy to be continually known as the only RTS News Channel for generations to Come)
