There's the London Web Frameworks Night on Thursday, which might be a
bit geeky (it's about Perl, Python and Ruby web frameworks):

[backstage] Mood News Update and an Idea

2005-11-14 Thread Davy Mitchell
Hi Folks,

Just added some personalisation features to Mood News. You can specify
some keywords to track stories on which are presented in Good to Bad
order.

 http://www.latedecember.com/sites/moodnews/

Cookies and Javascript required. Also there have been numerous backend
tweaks and most of the javascript has been optimised.

Anyway while putting it together I wondered if anyone fancied taking
on this little idea... How about a Google News style page for BBC
content. It would be handy to have single customisable page to view
all to stories arranged by topics. I'd read it - promise :-)

Thanks,
Davy Mitchell

RE: [backstage] Mood News Update and an Idea

Just thinking out loud here (so feel free to ignore :-) ) but be nice to
have a sports version of mood news and let me specify which teams I like in
a positive context and which ones are good in a negative context:

England win - Positive and Good News
Australia win - Positive yet Bad News
England lose - Negative and Bad News
Australia lose - Negative yet Good News!?!

Guess it depends how you are defining good and bad...
