Fifteen thousand postcodes
have been emailed to us. Hundreds arrive in the post each day. And TOMORROW on iPM we'll launch the big map!
Someone asked me yesterday if the deadline for sending your postcode is tomorrow. It isn't. We'll stop taking postcodes NEXT Saturday, the 22nd.
Tomorrow's map will show as many postcodes as we've been able to process and we will add to the map constantly. We're trying hard to make sure no-one's postcode falls through any gaps, so I urge you if you've sent your postcode to the wrong address (eg: pm@bbc.co.uk) or posted it on the blog (naughty!) to send it to ipm@bbc.co.uk and we'll do our very best. There'll be more tonight...
Eddie, may I ask, what is the point of this exercise? I like maps very much and have forwarded my postcode to the correct address, so I don't mean to imply disapproval. But, well, why?
Appy - because it's INTERACTIVE, silly! There is no need for any further justification.
And, of course, maps are brilliant for radio....
(tee hee!)
