A very cool way to watch a TV newscast: One of the big struggles in TV news is how to provide viewers with an easy way to find and watch specific newscast segments on the web. (“I saw it on TV around 5:30 p.m., but I can’t find it on your website….”) Here at msnbc.com, we just launched the TODAY Video Timeline on TodayShow.com, a nifty Flash experience that lets you chronologically scroll through TODAY segments labeled with the exact air times. Beyond finding a specific segment, it’s also a great way to browse the show, clicking on the clips you want to watch.
