Have you tried acking the guy who made that site, there's a contact page at
http://edmullen.net/contact.php - maybe he can help you out.

I like the bounce on the second hand with that clock you mentioned.

I followed his guidance at the top of the page where the nice clocks  
were found before posting :)


Please note: I did not create any of these Flash clocks! I found them  
all on the Internet. I placed them here for information purposes only.  
There's little point in writing to me about them as I have said  
everything I know about them here and on the individual clock pages.

Hi there

I'm not sure this will be of any use to you. I have source code to a basic
clock. Personally I like the the retro aspect, the code is in javascript. I
used the code to develop an opensocial app on hi5.com and iGoogle. You can
view the clock here, http://smbale.hi5.com/ and here is the xml file,
http://www.mpelembe.net/time-clock.xml . The code is free to use as you
wish.

best regards

Sam

2008-07-28 Thread Paul Silver
Prem, one of the organisers, is hoping to stream a lot of the talks
through Yahoo Live or a similar service, and we're hoping to make them
in to an archive so there will be video as well as all the usual blog
posts and pictures that go along with a BarCamp.

If you keep an eye on www.barcampbrighton.org we'll be posting up
links to talks we manage to record, and I'll try to remember to mail
anyone who's interested.

Cheers

Paul

Re: [backstage] BBC clock

2008-07-28 Thread Jonathan Baldwin

This is one of my favourite Flash clocks:

http://yugop.com/ver3/stuff/03/fla.html

If you're halfway decent with Flash, here's a tutorial to make your  
own analogue clock:

http://www.entheosweb.com/Flash/analog_clock.asp

However I have to say the two BBC clocks on there, especially the  
second one, brought a lump to my throat. Now if only someone could do  
the one that used to count down to schools programmes - that would  
have us riveted while waiting for Watch or Words and Pictures...

Thanks. The clock I really like is at http://edmullen.net/fclock.php  
(bbc2.php) but I need to find the source/author/licence else, quite  
reasonably, the web developer will not incorporate it (if it is  
possible to do so). It is a classic clock design and one of the  
better ones out there.


Any clues ?

When iPlayer2 launched I grab this test RSS feed:

http://feeds.bbc.co.uk/iplayer/categories/factual/sciencenature_and_environment/radio/list

But all I got since then was Farming Today.   Seems to have come to life,
and also the */popular *version also.

Thanks
