´óÏó´«Ã½

First, some radio related hacks from Mashed the other week...

Dan Brickley, who wasn't at Mashed but still created something, writes about building a genre summary for a user based on their last.fm favourites and our /music genre data.

Patrick, one of our developers, writes about his Mashed hack to build a recommendation engine based on what radio shows played what bands. I'm trying to persuade him to write more on the Radio Labs blog.

Yves writes about his hack showing some of the power of RDF by linking the ´óÏó´«Ã½ programmes data with Musicbrainz.

And some other ´óÏó´«Ã½ prototyping and innovation work...

"URIplay is a name service for media content, giving each file a URI and a simple description. Think of it as DNS for media." One of the first projects from George and the ´óÏó´«Ã½ RAD team.

´óÏó´«Ã½i Labs
The first of an approaching horde of ´óÏó´«Ã½ Labs blogs.

And finally...

Bruce Sterling wonders "...which will die first: analog radio, or printed paper postage stamp".
