Democracy Live

Mark Coyle | 14:40 UK time, Monday, 2 November 2009

If you're a user of Twitter, you may have spotted the quiet arrival of the ´óÏó´«Ã½'s new website called at the end of last week.

The site is officially launched today but for technical reasons, we lifted the barriers to the outside world on Thursday evening. Although we didn't announce its availability, such is the power of social media that people were quick to find us and start tweeting about the site.

even reviewed Democracy Live on Friday and concluded by saying: "It brings a decidedly 21st century edge to watching parliamentary discussion."

"DL", as it's become known in the ´óÏó´«Ã½, is the result of about 18 months of development work.

It brings together for the first time in the ´óÏó´«Ã½, live and on demand video coverage of proceedings in our national political institutions and the European Parliament. Democracy Live builds on previously available content in the form of video streams, guides and biographies.

But the real magic lies in the site's search function, which is unlike anything the ´óÏó´«Ã½ has done before.
