BBC News testing in-page links
The BBC News website is one of my favourite sites, and while there today, noticed that the BBC have recently begun placing in page links in their articles, allowing you to look at Wikipedia entries, YouTube videos, PDF’s from Scribd and more without ever need to leave the page, by using a cool bit of AJAX, much like the image effect we have here on TechRave.
Personally, this makes the BBC News site even more valuable for me - I’m always off searching for stuff on Wikipedia after reading articles - so why not let them do it for you? For now it is only in testing, so you’ll need to find an article that has some links already in it. This one here should do just fine.
I’ve included some images here so you can have a look at how it works.

You do not want to know how many times I tried pressing the close button thinking that was a pop-up. Maybe I should start reading the titles first.
