Symposium Hall, Edinburgh
Enjoy a day of the web's best speakers discussing the future of information online.
Sharing the joy - building badges for distribution
The web is moving away not only from the browser to other platforms, but also from site to site. If you want to be a big player these days, sharing your information and giving others access to your data increases your reach a lot more than any advertising can do.
This session talks about some of the steps you should take to allow for your data to be accessed and some tricks how to build badges for inclusion in other sites. Let's share the goodies without taking over the work others have done.
