BBC “Have Your Say” Reader

November 28th, 2006

The Beeb’s “Have your say” feature is good. It’s got some seriously good content but the approach used to view the information is slightly difficult. The web page has a small central comment area and it can be quite hard to follow all the conversations. Anyway, this brings me nicely around to a new project I’ve been working on. I decided to utilise the BBC’s RSS feeds for Have Your Say an additionally the search system which they implemented in XML. Using the two areas I was able to create an application for monitoring all the “Have Your Say” areas plus adding “Related news articles” based on the topic of the “Have Your Say” title..

I haven’t finalised a lot of the bits and bobs yet so this is not currently “released”, however if you fancy testing it out then give me a mail and ill see what I can do!
