I think we are all agreeing that our EML results can be
used by any end point to easily convert the result into whatever display form it
chooses. That is one of the strengths of a published, open standard --
others know it and can use it. Our US news agencies should be doing the
same, if we ever got all the players to put out EML.

HI,
I agree here. Twitter is just one of the possible things that a 510 can
be transformed into. We have used it as input for a nice flash application that
showed bar charts and nice eye candy, we have also transformed it into HTML, so
Twitter is just another thing we convert a 510 into.

I don't see anything that needs
to be added. I am having a frustrating day today. I might just spend some time
making an EML to Twitter tool. Post a 510 and it gets parsed and
uploaded.

Paul

Threat or opportunity to write an EML to Twitter
converter?
Twitter is just a channel. A strength of EML is that it is channel
independent, so the more channels people use the better - they just generate one
510 and use some stylesheets to convert it for the different channels.

This is a very interesting development and may
be a threat to us on the results reporting side?
