The Portal Data Export Project A Success!New technology allows other websites to display content from the Gippsland Portal By Adam George - 9th July 2002 - Back to News On Tuesday 2 July, the Portal sent out emails regarding the new technology it's developed for exporting content from the Portal to other websites. We are pleased to announce that we have received numerous enquires about the project, and already many webmasters have decided to start displaying content from the Portal on their sites.
This is a huge step forward for Gippsland in the area of information sharing. The Portal has been intensely working on developing procedures and methods for sharing information across Gippsland over the past year, creating a network of information to benefit the Gippsland community and bring us closer together.
As a webmaster of a local website, we offer you the opportunity to get involved and display content from the Portal for free. Currently we offer Gippsland news and Gippsland weather. Coming soon will be the ability for local sites to display contact details of various businesses from the Portal's massive Business Directory.
Imagine being able to display the details for all the local business from a specific area, specific category on your site! If you're running a site on Tourism for example, you could use this service to display all the tourism related businesses from the Portal. As more business join, the changes would be reflected on your site. You don't have to do anything!
The Portal is also happy to develop procedures to export any other type of information that displays in the portal, if people request it. Maybe you'd like to have the latest fuel prices on your site for your local area? Or maybe our job classifieds? Let us know and we'd be happy to set something up for you.
If you'd like to see some of the sites that are now displaying Gippsland content, follow these links:
