Headshift successfully advised the BBC on transforming their external facing blogs taking them from trial to live service.
Consultation and requirements gathering
The BBC was running a blogs trial since March 2006 with most of the 45 live BBC blogs operating on a customised version of Movable Type. In a comprehensive consulting piece, Headshift reviewed the existing platform and all the available trial data including technical feedback, usage logs, editorial feedback, and feedback from users in workshops and at a user event.
Recommendations
Based on the review of data and feedback, we provided a comprehensive report on lessons learnt to take forward into the live service, made recommendations on technical platforms, as well as editorial criteria for commissioning and decommissioning blogs.
Headshift is currently working with the BBC to implement the new blogging platform.
