Weather System – ioBridge and BBC Forecast Mashup

Over at PaperMashup.com, Ashley Ford has created a predictive weather system by tying the API of BBC Weather and real-time temperature data collected by a temperature sensor on the IO-204. Ashley is a developer at MySpace.com and has created a very clever project that uses ioBridge.com as a web service. The system serves as a way for him to forecast the weather in the UK as the season starts to turn colder. The predictive element comes from getting the forecast from the BBC Weather API and mashing it up with the ioBridge Data Feed API.
