syndication | resource discovery | Using media rss to syndicate and share media | Category:Syndication
The question is two fold:
- How do you let people know what stuff you have and where your stuff is?
- Suppose we're looking at a 'piece of stuff' that you wanted to syndicate content across institutions, then what sort of metadata would you need to exchange in order to be able to build a common repository?
The first question is discussed here resource discovery. For the 2nd question see Using media rss to syndicate and share media.
[edit] 1 Why this is relevant
The ideas described on this page are relevant, because we're using them for two projects:
- CamTV: http://mediaplayer.group.cam.ac.uk
- Steeple podcast portal: http://podcast.steeple.org.uk
The portals contain about 7500 data sets, and we need to have a good syndication standard to be able to share metadata efficiently.
