Hacking and listening

Jamillah Knowles | 10:36 UK time, Tuesday, 3 May 2011

Hello Outriders!

This week on the podcast I got to chat with the amazing ´óÏó´«Ã½ department known as . The listening post that has an ear to the world, translating, recording and bringing us news from all over the globe.

Chris Greenway told me about how it works to monitor output worldwide in all languages and how we too can listen to local radio from afar or find out what's happening for ourselves without relying on our usual social network places.

Also this week, Jon Jacob, blogger and reporter went to T conference in Amsterdam. He did ask if I was going too and realising I could not make it, he very kindly gave up some of his networking and partying time to record the hackathon for us to share.

Thanks to Jon for his time and skills this week, it's been a pleasure to have the antics in Amsterdam sent back to London.

If you have something to share with us drop me a line. You can email me at Outriders at bbc dot co dot uk. I look forward to hearing about what you might be making online.

Until next week!
~ Jamillah
