Re: [backstage] Joost backend revealed
If anyone wants any Joost invites, please mail me privately - [EMAIL PROTECTED] - and I'll get an invitin' when I'm next near wifi. Which will be tomorrow, probably in Oslo airport. Any Joost user gets unlimited invites, so no special favours with the Joost lot need be procured. -- http://james.cridland.net/ On 5/29/07, Ian Forrester <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> wrote: I'll have a word with my friends at Joost, see if we can get a bunch of invites.

Re: [backstage] BBC "Radio" 7
Here's my guess as to why the BBC dab services have changed... Most people tune using the short-name - which have all now changed so they work in sequence as you tune in. So you get BBC R1, BBC R1X, BBC R2, BBC R3, BBC R4, BBC R5L, BBC R5SX, etc. Because of the way the DAB names work (the short-names aren't broadcast separately; just one character tells the radio which characters it should display from the long names), you can't have "BBC R7" as a short name, but "BBC7" as the long name. I personally prefer it the new way. I've no idea whether any of this is true, since I don't work for the BBC. -- http://james.cridland.net/ On 5/29/07, Gary Kirk <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> wrote: Last night I noticed my digital radio (The Bug) displayed "BBC Radio 7" instead of the usual BBC 7. The shortcut also displayed as BBC R7, like Radio 4 does. I investigated and found 6music had also changed - BBC Radio 6 music. Why is this? Obviously it's a radio broadcast - it's a digital radio... BBC Radio 1 - 4 & Five Five I understand, as, broadcast on traditional radio, have always been called this; 7 never has. -- Gary Kirk - Sent via the backstage.bbc.co.uk discussion group.

RE: [backstage] BBC "Radio" 7
This is very off topic I know, but my favourite example of branding comes from BBC London. I don't know if they still do this, but certainly for a time, they had jingles that proclaimed the station was "BBC London 94.9 and BBC Radio London on digital". I always loved the decision that saw a station take two different names depending on their broadcast medium :) "On TV, on radio and online" Ssh!

RE: [backstage] BBC "Radio" 7
Maybe this is all because you can somehow magically receive the audio streams from Freeview stations via your DAB radios as WELL as the digital audio broadcasts, but we're not told how to discern between the two thus the ostensibly unnecessary branding on the radio streams...

The BBC's local radio stations are run by a different department to the network ones. A decision made by one, doesn't necessarily affect the other. This is very off topic I know, but my favourite example of branding comes from BBC London. I don't know if they still do this, but certainly for a time, they had jingles that proclaimed the station was "BBC London 94.9 and BBC Radio London on digital".

RE: [backstage] Blogging about iPlayer
;) Ok then, congrats! I've just made my blog members-only, and everybody on this list is auto-subscribed.

If I could ever get enough ad impressions from a small google ad to cover my hosting costs, that'd be nice. Some of my friends run really big sites that easily cover themselves for hosting costs, but I've never really had that desire because the cost of upkeep time-wise is huge.
