WCCO News Comes To The iPhone In Style

It has always amazed me how news stations can spend thousands on new sets, fancy graphics and anything to get more viewers on TV, but their website usually suck.

Getting the local news on an iPhone or iPod Touch meant loading an overly busy, and usually slow, website or a very basic, and usually ugly, mobile version.

Now however, WCCO, the local CBS station, has come out with an iPhone application that is beautiful! See for yourself.

I’ve actually thought that WCCO has had the best designed news website in the Twin Citites and it’s great to see them taking the lead again with not only an iPhone application, but also an Android app.

You can download the WCCO iPhone app in iTunes for free.
