TagLoops

TechCrunch reviewed this nice new Flash app which brings together various resources held elsewhere including RSS and other feeds, streaming audio, images, and lets you mash them into a time-based "web movie". Lots of effects and actions available. Plenty to sort out, too, but I explained why it might be interesting to the dude who gave me access thus
"...basically we and lots of others in the museum sector in the UK (and elsewhere, of course) are keen to see where SW can fit in with what we want to/should be doing. At the same time I am doing a PhD in the sustainability of museums' digital stuff (which SW has a potentially large part in). It was cool to see an innovative example of how we can use and reuse semantically organised resources. RSS, podcasts, feeds from Flickr etc. are all used in various ways, some more creative than others. TagLoop looked like it could do something completely fresh, and whilst it may or may not prove useful to us or other museums just as it is (and I'm sure it can), I think it will get us thinking afresh about what is possible with our news feeds, events listings, image collections, audio tours, blogs etc
It caught my eye also because I'm no Flash whizz, we commission that sort of work from others, and it's only recently that we've started to understand the scope for feeding XML and external assets into a Flash "framework" file. TagLoops seems to take this to quite an extreme. I'm sure that you could create quite a market in customised versions of it, too."
