BBC My Science Fiction Life site

[phase38]

In mid Novemeber, bbc are releasing a website concentrating on British works of Sci Fi..

Its an interactive timeline, where people can add their own recollections of sci fi works... be it books, films, radio... anything. Then other fans can contribute, discussing the works and what it means to them. They can then add their own...

Sounds like its gonna be quite cool...

Its part of BBC 4's Science Fiction series :

Anyone have anything to say?

Well, I'm curious about it, and would like to see a lot more as it gets closer to being up and running... and I'm wondering who on this site would be participating, as well... Thanks for letting us know about it, and I'll keep checking; but also keep us posted on any more news, if you would, please.

I will do.

Looks really interesting. I wonder how heavily the Beeb will promote it on the terrestrial channels? Could be a lot of interest if they do...

It sounds interesting

Initial homepage has gone live...

BBC - My Science Fiction Life

We're currently looking for contributors, to be able to add recollections to the site.

Anyone interested?

 

[carrie221]

The site looks very interesting...

Ok.. the interim site is now live... which means you can select one of 50 sci fi works and add your own recollections..

They'll appear on the timeline in the next few weeks...

Go take a look :

Is the site wholly centred on science fiction? Dr Who and the likes has no interest for me. Even as a small child I found the show absolutely lacking. Perhaps I should add that to the timeline.

Yep, the site is ANY science fiction.

And if you feel that way about Doctor Who.. add it as a recollection by all means. The point of the site is that it's content is made up of recollections and responses from fans of Science Fiction.

Enjoy!
