"Location, location, location": Radio 1 Big Weekend Check-In Experiment

14 May 2011

The Radio 1 Big Weekend offered the perfect opportunity to try this. We know the line-up in detail, and where each stage is located, and we know the audience has an appetite for 'sharing their pride' via social networks. Some research was conducted to see which platform would reach the most users, and somewhat unsurprisingly Facebook was in the top slot.

Nice HTML5-based location check-in work by the BBC.
