´óÏó´«Ã½ Schedule

Built using the Microsoft .Net Framework, ´óÏó´«Ã½ Schedule has been designed to be compatible with all devices running the latest Microsoft Operating System with .Net capabilities. This means that you can view an entire 7 day ´óÏó´«Ã½ schedule on XDAs, PDAs, mobile phones and of course a standard desktop or laptop PC. The dynamic interface allows you to view the ´óÏó´«Ã½ Schedule in the same way on any device, even with a screen resolution as low as 320 x 240.

This is the base version of ´óÏó´«Ã½ Schedule on which all other features can be built. With more time I would look at adding the following features:

> Allow users to click on a programme (in the programme listing) to see
> more information about that programme and links its website. There can
> also be an internal media player to allow explanations of the
> programme through audio and or video


Settings to allow for local area, ensuring the user sees information related to their area, eg local channels etc.


> Setting to allow user to add 'favorite' programmes and to add alarms
> so that they will be alerted when a chosen programme is about to
> start, these can be set to be one-offs, daily, weekly or continuous
> depending on the nature of the programme


> 'Whats on now' option in channel listing which displays what is on at
> the current moment in time. This could also be expanded so that
> hovering over the icon in the system tray will show this information


Currently ´óÏó´«Ã½ Schedule stands as a good computer based schedule viewer. However, with the time to make improvements ´óÏó´«Ã½ Schedule could be made into a fully integrated solution allowing people to plan what they want to watch and/or listen to without worrying about missing a programme.
