We have just launched an additional column of the "POPULAR SEARCHES RIGHT NOW ARE" panel on the BBCi homepage. It has been a pretty quick & dirty development job, but it means that we should now have on the homepage three popular searches that provide an alternative to reading about the war, and three popular searches that will guide the user to the BBC News stories that other users are searching for, and that have an editorial connection to the main right-hand feature on the page.
