Steve's been saying this for a long time - now that the Beeb has taken

Interesting article  The BBC urged to become UK's "open-source media
platform"


"The broadcast era is finished," says Steve
Bowbrick
 . "The BBC needs to provide web tools and a new generation of methods and
resources that will boost [its] capital, but that will also use the BBC as a
platform for promoting the individuals, organisations and businesses that
make up UK plc."
