BBC World Service kills off YourStory citizen participation

Your Story project - The End from BBC Your Story on Vimeo.



BBC World Service is building a reputation for killing off good ideas before they have had time to mature. I think this was the case last year when the used citizens to help redesign their website and it looks like the case now, especially when the cost to run this kind of scheme is peanuts. I have no connection with the BBC, just think that Nina Robinson needs a round of applause for the work she's done. Not sure the BBC technicians are doing Nina justice by uploading the message in the wrong aspect ratio and cutting her off after 1 minute.
