What's new on chicagolive.com?

In preparation for the new season, we thought it was time to spruce up the website. You know, tidy things up, make it easy to listen to the radio show, make it more interactive. Here's what we came up with.

EPISODE PLAYER:You may have noticed the "latest episode" box hovering at the top of the home page – here you can listen to a recording of the full radio broadcast, see all of that episode's videos, browse the photo gallery or get more information about that week's guests. The proverbial one-stop shop.

LISTEN PAGE:How do I listen to the Saturday night broadcast? How do I subscribe on iTunes? How do I download a file to listen to on my vintage 1999 Diamond Rio 32MB MP3 player? (If you don't know what that means, don't worry.) Listen to "Chicago Live!" how you want, when you want. It's all on our new "Listen" page.

"BEHIND THE CURTAIN" BLOG:If you're reading this, you've found it already. Follow the behind-the-scenes action and get to know the creative team behind "Chicago Live!" Then come pick us out of the crowd at a show and say "Hey – will you please sign my printed screenshot of your Pulitzer-worthy description of the website updates?" Of course I will.

KOGAN'S CORNER:Rick Kogan wears many hats – Tribune "Sidewalks" columnist, WGN Radio "Sunday Papers" host, "Chicago Live!" ringmaster and Almanac alchemist. No single web page could contain his prolific documentation of Chicago history and culture, but we've squeezed in as much as we could. Find his latest columns, Almanacs, podcasts and a collection of classic stories curated by Rick himself.

In addition, we've categorized our archives on the home page, cleaned up episode listings for upcoming and past shows, spelled out all of our new ticket options and generally made the website (we hope) easier to get around. Like it? Hate it? Have a good idea for the site? All sentiments are welcome – email me at chicagolive@tribune.com.
