In a similar vein to Tom Coates post a long time ago. Someone who
loves the BBC but also hates some of the decisions it makes. Had me
up most of the night.
I can't help but feel I saw the evidence of this at dconstruct07. Of
all the sponsors I talked to, I think the BBC were the only one
without anything to push. I spoke to Adobe people about AIR; Magdex
people who were sniffing for new talent; Yahoo people who were
demoing the Flickr API...
The BBC were giving away t-shirts and, um, that was about it. Oh,
and key lanyards too*.
I don't mean to sound snide, but I'd struggle to point to a single
online project where I could say "there, the BBC are leading the way.".
At the risk of showing my ignorance; perhaps a web section of the BBC
should be split off with a different mandate.
