v Peston Picks is moving By www.bbc.co.uk Published On :: Thu, 12 May 2011 12:20:59 +0000 My blog is dead. Long live the new blog. Or to put it another way, my page - and those of other BBC bloggers - is having a makeover. So if you don't want to read on, and you simply want to read my latest post, click here. The reason for the change is to bring together more of my output in one place. So on the new page, you'll find many of my TV and radio pieces, and (soon) my tweets. If I go mad and decide to do other social media, that'll be there too. Fingers crossed that you like what you see. I can't hope that all of you will love all the changes. And in particular, I am sure some of you will be frustrated that (for cost reasons) there is now a 400 character limit on the comments you can leave. Please don't let that put you off expressing yourselves. I can't tell you how much I value your opinions and the debate we have. As for the posts I've written since Picks was launched in January 2007, the best place to find them is here. For future posts, the best URL for me is still bbc.co.uk/robertpeston Full Article
