Europe's just got closer 

Comments:1   Add your comment
For a long time now there's been a political debate rolling on about Europe, largely around the questions of its relevance to modern Britain and what exactly it does? (and of course why are they so bad at golf?!)

Clearly there's no easy or simple way of addressing these issues.  Europe, as a political body, is undoubtedly a complex body - yet, as complex as it is, it also has a clear role and benefit for Britain in today's global society.

One step the European Parliament has made to tackle the "what the hell do we do" question is launch a new online TV station called "EuroparlTV"EuroparlTV provides an insight into the workings of the European Parliament by broadcasting debates, interviews with politicians and citizens views.

From a service delivery perspective, the project looks like a success - with a nicely designed site, and some interesting content - though interesting only if you have a PC - as the videos don't run on Macs!

The key to its success is the question of whether anyone will actually use the service.  However, with over 20 languages catered for, its pan-European appeal may well be the key to its success - very much like the European Union itself . . .

sounds like good news for insomniacs and a source of language learning and maybe a reason to get a Mac to avoid it all
