Did you notice we've been talking about it for 5 hours? Ha Ha

Most of the conversation is about the "Library" menu tab and what is inside that.  I just wanted to know if anyone looked at the whole page to take in the new layout (beyond the "Library" tab)...😎

I think this title could be yet a bit misleading... since wol still exist as a separate website. And also, the link to wol has always existed in jw.org, it is not a new addition.

Yes, it is stand-alone at present.

 

https://wol.jw.org/en/wol  -- still operational

https://tv.jw.org                   -- site comes up but redirects to jw.org

www.watchtower.org         -- site no longer responds at all

My question is May online library also merge or not?

Since jw.org does not host the old Kingdom Melodies (1984) that used to be on tv.jw.org, they can no longer be played nor downloaded.

We do have them in our JWL app under Audio..👍

The clue is in the title. 😜😳🤣😁

 

This just in from the interweb...

 

reconfiguration

Philip ran alongside him and asked: “Do you actually know what you are reading?” How did the eunuch answer? “‘Really, how could I ever do so, unless someone guided me?’

 

ACTS 8 My Dear Brother.

 

Be guided by what is on the page... Lots of Christian love... Si (Spanish for Oui)

The difference that has been updated in the last 90 minutes is this...

 

 

It now says: 

 

For publication updates, please visit jw.org.

This is very significant.

It means that the site is soon changing?

Just an observation.

This just in...

 

The grayed line was just added to the splash page of this website...

 

The publication downloads are being farmed over to jw.org.

 

It was not printed on this site 100 minutes ago.

 

Fascinating progression throughout the day...

 

Has jw.library changed?

 

Interesting?

Since the Ruke and the Apple TV uses "apps" - the app accesses wherever the content is located and uses its own interface - they are not part of the jw.org website.

 

There should not be any reason for the Roku and Apple TV apps to be discontinued unless it is costing us (The Organization ... not us as individuals) to have those services available.

 

I'm sure we will be notified by announcement to the Congregation and/or on the website before anything drastic would happen to these apps.

the only thing that could happen to jw broadcasting app on apple tv & roku is a re-design and be able to play audio of publications.

Sorry if this has been said before, but JW Broadcasting (The website) now redirects to the main site.

I think the difference is it is listed in the menu as opposed to tapping the icon at the bottom of the home page.

stephen lett did say the 3 sites would be 1in the video "Annual Meeting 2018—Talks and Announcements" (part 2) plus Jw Library app would be redesigned to have the same content thats on Watchtower Library. Both The App & website would be more user friendly.

[BibleSteve]

I love the changes to JW.ORG! its much clearer and easy to navigate and will be great for directing people to certain subjects on the ministry.

I meant this link?

The point is...publication downloads are no longer available through WOL.

 

For publication downloads, please visit jw.org.

 

That's the part that's new...

 

WOL used to be a one stop shop for downloads...

 

Now it is not...

 

Capisci?

Roku still functioning as normal here in England - I’m listening to streaming music as I type this. Plus I have the option to connect my laptop and iPad to the TV using hdmi to access jw.org if I wish should Roku stop streaming.
