This just in this morning from the BBC News Online tech crew:


“Yesterday afternoon [we] pulled the big red lever to make the CPS start publishing RSS versions of all the NewsOnline indexes on the website.

Examples:

Front Page
http://news.bbc.co.uk/rss/newsonline_uk_edition/front_page/rss091.xml

Cambridgeshire
http://news.bbc.co.uk/rss/newsonline_uk_edition/england/cambridgeshire/rss091.xml

Arts
http://news.bbc.co.uk/rss/newsonline_uk_edition/entertainment/arts/rss091.xml

News 24
http://news.bbc.co.uk/rss/newsonline_uk_edition/programmes/bbc_news_24/rss091.xml

…and for all of you going away to Glastonbury next weekend, Summer Music Festivals 2003

http://news.bbc.co.uk/rss/newsonline_uk_edition/in_depth/entertainment/2003/summer_music_festivals/rss091.xml
in the UK Edition

And similarly in the World Edition,

Europe
http://news.bbc.co.uk/rss/newsonline_world_edition/europe/rss091.xml

And Business
http://news.bbc.co.uk/rss/newsonline_world_edition/business/rss091.xml

Etc.

The more ambitious of you out there should be able to work out the URL’s of any index you want.“

I love those guys.
