======================== BBC Radio supports multi-platforms, so we also have multi-formats to support that. How do we make sure we are providing this in a machine readable way that helps people expose our content more? If you've been following Tom's blog <http://derivadow.com/2008/07/18/interesting-bbc-data-to-hack-with/> , you'll have noticed that we are now happily creating feeds of data that provide availability information about all our Listen Again (Audio-On-Demand / AOD) content. I've put together some documentation <http://docs.google.com/View?docid=d9sxx7p_38cfsmxfcq> from our internal tests and subsequent wider 'beta' tests with some of the aggregators and device manufacturers. <quote>"Every 3 hours, it contains everything that is available now (as per update). It also contains everything that will become available in the next 48 hours." excerpt from docs</quote> I'm presenting this documentation as I think we are ready to find out how it works for others. You can feedback on aodfeed at bbc dot co dot uk (yes - this email now works for anyone who has tried it previously) or to myself - [EMAIL PROTECTED] Or indeed, feel free to comment here and I will attempt to collate. ======================== -- Alan Ogilvie [EMAIL PROTECTED] (IP) Interactive Platforms Producer Distribution Technologies | Audio & Music Interactive Room 818, BBC Henry Wood House, 3-6 Langham Place, London, W1B 3DF - Sent via the backstage.bbc.co.uk discussion group.
