Re: [backstage] BBC Radio Player iGoogle Gadget
Hi Jason, Very nice iGoogle Gadget. Couple of weeks back, I also made a BBC Radio Gadget for Google Sidebar. In the beginning I am using BBC API to pull schedule information, planning to add couple of more features.

Re: [backstage] BBC Radio Player iGoogle Gadget
I can't see why they would do that. It's a personal home page, not something for other people. Anyway, the one I just demoed works with IE and WMP with XP and Vista.
