As the 'webspinner' for a non-commercial radio station, I've been
thinking of some resource-types that would be useful for improving
searches.
Interview
The transcript or text of an interview.
Schedule
A schedule of events (upcoming), a broadcast schedule, etc.
(There are probably some granularities here: daily, hourly,
weekly, a class schedule for educational institutions; a schedule
of events for conferences, etc.)
Contact Info
A list of people or organizations with contact information (email,
WWW, telephone numbers, postal addresses, etc.)
List
A simple list, where the items on the page do not contacin any
information (ie, the page is the lowest level of information). In
the case of a radio station, playlists fit into this category (many
searching the net for information on an artist stumple across play-
lists, for instance). Other types of lists would fit into this
category (top ten lists, favorite movies/books, a list of speakers
at a conference with no further information about them, etc.),
linkfarms....
Possibly some granuarity here too... differentiate between lists
with no information (Basic List) and lists with some (minimal)
information (Extended List).
