The Beeb feed
April 30, 2005
A quick followup to the previous post: The BBC has announced that next month it will be "liberating the availability of its content" through RSS feeds, according to Pete Clifton, editor of the BBC News website. Calling the move "a revolution," Clifton says that "it's the way ahead for lots of people. In March, we registered 16.5 million click-throughs to reports from RSS feeds, and our target is 10% of our traffic driven by RSS by the end of this year."
