Re: [backstage] Geographical coordinates of weather feed locations

2007-09-20 Thread Allan Jardine

Well the latitude and longitude are in the feeds:

geo:lat49.92/geo:lat
geo:long-6.3/geo:long

So it would be a fairly simple matter to parse through the feeds and  
grab out the required data. You might want to put a little pause  
between each request, out of politeness, so you don't bomb the BBC  
server (although I'm certain it can take it).

Hi,

Does anyone know if it is possible to obtain the geographical  
coordinates of the 7379 BBC weather feed locations?


Thanks,

[backstage] iPod touch // iPhone development

2007-09-20 Thread James Cridland
Those of you who might be keeping an eye on the next big thing, and who
are in London, might want to know that the Apple Store in Regent Street has
a slew of iPod Touch units available to play with. There are developer kits
available on the web, but if you want to give your new app a quick test on a
real iPod Touch, they are all connected to the instore open wifi. You might
have to queue to have a quick play. They're really *very* nice. The screen
is incredibly good, and the user interface is stunning.

(They're sold out, mind, until early next week. They'll be in all Apple UK
stores on September 28th, and available online for then.)

http://www.flickr.com/photos/jamescridland/1413260855/ shows my first,
blurry, test of a media website near you. It almost displayed perfectly.

Worth mentioning that many companies have a corporate deal with Apple
allowing you money off. For those within the BBC, a flash of your ID card
when purchasing will suffice; I believe the government have similar, as do
bona-fide Virgin employees. There are also discounts for students.

 The new Apple Store in Glasgow also had some demo units when I was in
 yesterday.
 I really wanted to like it, but found the interface a little bit too
 sluggish; the accelerometer didn't always recognise me turning it over, and
 I found typing to be a right pain.

 It is very shiny though...


I had a gander at the new toys at the shop in Regent Street. Very
thin, shiny - albeit covered in fingermarks - and a feat of good
design. Tempting, but I think I'll stick with the 5G iPod I bought
last year.

 (Also, the people of Glasgow either don't seem to have realised - or are too
 polite - to clog up the MacBooks and iMacs checking their email, or online
 banking, or the like. Quite handy if you actually want to buy something.)


Bleeding 'eck. I trust Apple's record on security, but not so much
that I'd do online banking on a public machine.
