Dear backstagers,

You might have noticed that we recently launched RSS feeds for our News and Sport search services.

The orange RSS button now appears when you click on the News and Sport tab for bbc.co.uk search results and you can construct URLs of the form

http://newsapi.bbc.co.uk/feeds/search/news+sport/venezuela
http://newsapi.bbc.co.uk/feeds/search/news+sport/surprise
http://newsapi.bbc.co.uk/feeds/search/news+sport/gay+firemen

etc etc

The results are currently text stories only - the links to audio-video clips which you see on the HTML search are not included.

There is one bug which we are aware of which you can see here
http://newsapi.bbc.co.uk/feeds/search/news+sport/lord+levy
we are incorrectly escaping entity references, so what should be &#34; is coming out as &amp;#34;

Please let us know what you think & whether you find the service useful.

Thanks,
Kevin.
