[backstage] Lunchtime feedback idea
Whilst working back from grabbing some sarnies with some collegues this lunchtime we were discussing politicans being interviewed on Radio 4 and how evasive and downright dodgy some of them (most of them? :-) ) sound. One of my chums then hit on a cunning wheeze for providing feedback to radio listeners that are using DAB radios or the web which we all rather liked. The basic idea was to take short messages from listeners (SMS, tweets, button clicks on the web, etc) when they thought that someone on air was spouting nonsense/evading the question/answering questions he'd rather he'd been asked/etc (we used a more bovine effluent related term during our discussion but I doubt that would be acceptable on the BBC! ;-) ). These could then be turned into a real time indication of listener dissatisfaction with the answers being given, and maybe displayed on the displays of the DAB radios, as well as on the Radio 4 website. Indeed the web site could have graphs of bovine effulent levels during the day, week, month, year, etc so that you could spot when there'd been a particularly heavy burst of nonsense being spouted by someone on the wireless, possibly with hyperlinks to iplayer programmes so that you could nip back in time and hear what caused the listeners to cry foul. - Sent via the backstage.bbc.co.uk discussion group.

Re: [backstage] Lunchtime feedback idea
Lol. This has made me laugh. Excellent idea. I would have used this when listening to radio 1 yesterday (was it Greg Norman talking to Alex Krotowski and calling Second Life a game! I was ranting at the radio wondering why Alex didnt correct him in that its not technically a game as per the other stuff they were discussing. You can't win anything in SL and similar genre VW aremorphing into serious business/collaboration tools. So yes Cow pat away. Love this idea.

The problem here would be who would judge what messages being received are in agreement or disagree with what is going on in the interview. Someone could say something sarcastically, but it would be picked up as literal, putting it in favor of whats being said. - Sent via the backstage.bbc.co.uk discussion group.
