Interesting question to the backstage community...
If we ran a competition which required the final prototype to be in Adobe Air,
how would people feel about that?
There's a run time and SDK for Win, OSx and now gnu/Linux.

I like it too. The Adobe Air platform seems quite good.
I got a Breaking News window today on bottom left of screen.
It would be nice to think what other tabs could be put in beyond News
and Sport... Weather i guess. The new iplayer feeds could be good...

Just looking at the "BBC Widget"...

Seems OK, but it does fall into the "recycled feeds" category...
Love the blurry slide to read the story!
