BBC to liberate its content via RSS

Pete Clifton, editor of the BBC News website states: "In the second week of May, the BBC News website will be completely liberating the availability of its content. RSS? Look for the orange "XML" button. RSS may sound like a souped up car, but many of you will know already that it's the way to access our reports from across the site. In a nutshell, it's a way to be told when your favourite parts of the site have new content to look at. We've been a bit cautious about it up to now. "Personal use only" has been the mantra, but after a lengthy discussion with the BBC's editorial policy department we are about to free things up. So in May we'll be happy for outside websites to dip in and take our headlines. We're also adding new feeds, like one with the most recently published stories, and still to come will be an RSS search telling you when reports have been published about particular topics you are interested in. May sound a bit much to get your head around, but it's the way ahead for lots of people. In March, we registered 16.5 million click-throughs to reports from RSS feeds, and our target is 10% of our traffic driven by RSS by the end of this year. Don't worry if it sounds bewildering. Watch out for high profile promotion of RSS feeds during May, spread across all our indices, and some easy guides to get you involved."
