“BigPond now offers an online interactive image wall service, BigPond News 3D, that allows you to rapidly scroll through a virtual wall of pictures and by simply clicking an image, you will be instantly taken to the news story, a new way of presenting news online and a first in Australia from BigPond,” Mr Milne said.
In addition to the news wall, BigPond News now includes up to 180 video news updates per day, including hourly bulletins, sport, entertainment, politics and business wraps , available online and on mobiles.
