BBC Radio Labs has been having fun this week Building Things For The Office. The result: "Dog Vader"!
BBC Backstage has been featured in Linux Magazine this month and also has news of a new project called CALLAS or...
"Conveying Affectiveness in Leading-edge Living Adaptive Systems"
And Backstage's Rain Ashford has, by her own admission, a massively detailed report (and Flickr pics) from Serious Virtual Words in Coventry:
time and again speakers mentioned how virtual worlds are on the cusp of major development and in a similar emerging state as the web was in the early 90s
Tech Radar reports on Super Hi Vision, Ultra HD TV at the IBC conference.
Finally, Dan Taylor asks an intriguing question: "Is BBC Weather really more popular than porn?"

You provided a link to Dan Taylor; to him asking the BBC question, and to BBC Weather. But you didn't link to the porn... come on, your viewers need to know -- what porn sites are endorsed by the Beeb?
:-)
(Just joshing chief; obviously I understand why that wasn't linked...)

But a search on flickr for "BBC weather porn" turned up nothing...
