Its been an amazing five years but finally the servers are powering down on the backstage.bbc.co.uk (to be official) project.The legacy of backstage will live on, but what better way to end the project but to launch a ebook which tells some of the stories of how the project started way back in 2004.
We commisioned to create the of the whole project, quite a challenge as you can imagine. But she's done a excellent job with help from editor Jim McClennan and designer . Its an fantastic piece of work I think you will agree.It also serves as a very fitting tribute to the endless efforts of the many staff, friends, hackers, developers, designers, critics, etc, etc of the project over the last half decade.
There is plenty of background information in the ebook including those playground servers, the amazing array of prototypes and some real interesting points about the nature hacking... maybe someone should with some of the information?
Ladies and Gentlemen, I'm really happy to present the Backstage Ebook:Hacking the Â鶹Éç, a backstage retrospective. From us to you, for making backstage what it became.
Download in [] [] [] [] []
(The Amazon Kindle will read MOBI files, the Apple iPad makes great work of the PDF, while most others readers will accept epub. If you're in any doubt try the PDF on which is full colour or the RTF which is just the content.)
You can also read more on , the Â鶹Éç R&D blog (which will be the place to find out what happens post backstage), the Â鶹Éç internet blog and of course .
I think its safe to say the ebook is licenced under a licence. So please do share it and tells us what bits you loved or hated. In actual fact, tells us what bits you loved or hated generally about the whole project. We really value your feedback and of course everything you all did to make backstage your place to influence the Â鶹Éç as a whole.
thank's for all the tags
.... end line :)
