hi Keith
That's pretty cool - it'll definitely make it easy to link up the BBC pages with other data - when will the new URLs be deployed ?
there'll be a public beta in October inviting feedback for a month or so, then (depending upon resultant changes/fixes) fully live in November
And maybe it could be linked data with some minimal RDFa? (eg: <link rev="meteo:forecastPage" href="http://sws.geonames.org/2637142/";> )
that would be good, I will recommend it to the product owner
Out of interest, how are the forecasts at http://news.bbc.co.uk/weather/ produced ? Is it all from the metoffice?
yes mostly - the daily and detailed forecast data and weather warnings all come from the UK Met Office (the site also publishes flood warnings from the Environment Agency, ski resort data from the Ski Club of Great Britain, etc)
