 606
Interactive - a massive hit
Ä¢¹½¶ÌÊÓÆµi's
606 football debate website has kicked off to a great start.
It
gained more than a million page impressions in the first two weeks
since it launched during the FA Cup third round on 4 January, according
to Ä¢¹½¶ÌÊÓÆµ server logs.
This
makes it the fastest growing site on Ä¢¹½¶ÌÊÓÆµi as 606 prepares for its
second interactive edition on radio, television and the web this
weekend.
The
606 website -
- is a collaboration between Ä¢¹½¶ÌÊÓÆµ Radio Five Live and Ä¢¹½¶ÌÊÓÆµ Sport,
bringing together all football related chat on Ä¢¹½¶ÌÊÓÆµi.
It
is already among the top ten sites for both Ä¢¹½¶ÌÊÓÆµ Radio and Music
and Ä¢¹½¶ÌÊÓÆµ Sport. The 606 message board is getting more than 2000 postings
a day, which makes it one of the most popular message boards on
Ä¢¹½¶ÌÊÓÆµi.
The
UK's biggest football debate, 606 is Five Live's longstanding post-match
phone-in.
On
4 January it launched an interactive edition for the FA Cup third
round. As well as radio and the web, for the first time 606 can
be seen across all digital platforms on interactive television too.
Visitors
to the 606 site will find a message board for every club in the
Premiership and boards for all the Nationwide League divisions,
as well as the opportunity to listen to 606 live, sample the notorious
rant line and link through to yet more high quality content from
both the Ä¢¹½¶ÌÊÓÆµ Sport website and Five Live.
On
Sunday 26 January at 8.30pm, top Five Live commentator Jonathan
Pearce will once again present the show live across all three platforms
after Shrewsbury take on Chelsea in the fourth round of the FA Cup.
Digital
television viewers can take part by pressing their red buttons after
Match of the Day on Ä¢¹½¶ÌÊÓÆµ ONE.
Five
Live listeners can tune in as normal to participate in the debate
via telephone, text or email.
