…is a blog by Tom Scott a place where I ramble about my thoughts and observations on the open web, linked data, URIs and generally how technology and design can create great things for people to use.
An objective of BBC programmes is to become part of existing online TV and Radio brands. Springwatch is one of the first to do this by applying a custom Springwatch design and navigation to the /programme pages.
What about 1Xtra? noticed this last week, seems to be the same format as the programmes pages, and when you click a show, it goes to the programmes website
@Darren – yes the 1Xtra schedule and pages from there are also from /programmes. We’re in the process of migrating all the radio networks, TV channels and major TV brands at the moment.
Sorry to hear you’re not getting on with the design of the blog. I’ll make he text box font bigger.
1842 - Ada Lovelace writes the first program. She is hampered in her efforts by the minor inconvenience that she doesn't have any actual computers to run her code. Enterprise architects will later relearn her techniques in order to program in UML.
My name is Tom Scott and this is my personal blog. I currently work at Nature Publishing Group, I previously worked at the BBC. However, these are my thoughts and observations not theirs.
I’m interested in and blog about how to make the web more human literate, linking data the webby way.

Hopefully it will be used much more, makes sense to have more information about the shows, and presenting it in a consistent way is a winner with me.
PS, not too sure about your new design, textbox font is a little too small, and the blog layout a bit confusing at first.
