Shownar: TV Discovery from BBC

From the BBC Internet Blog:
 
Today sees the launch of Shownar; a new prototype from BBC Vision which aims to track online buzz around BBC TV and radio programmes and reflect it back in useful and interesting ways, aiding programme discovery and providing onward journeys to discussion about those programmes on the wider web.
 
Nice idea to leverage all of the existing buzz on a programme and expose it in this way. I suppose the challenges are the various mechanisms needed to effectively measure buzz (something I do a bit of myself) and probably how to avoid spam and other nonsense pervading the system.
