The microprinter is an experiment in physical activity streams and notification, using a repurposed receipt printer connected to the web.
I use it for things like reminders, notifications, and my day at-a-glance, but anything that can be injected from the web and suits text only, short format messaging, will work.
The Semantic Web, a knowledge-centric model for the Web's future, supplements human-readable documents and XML message formats with data that can be understood and processed by machines. SPARQL Protocol and RDF Query Language (SPARQL) is to the semantic Web as SQL is to a relational database. It allows applications to make sophisticated queries against distributed RDF databases, and is widely supported by many competing frameworks. This tutorial demonstrates its use through the example of a team tracking and journaling system for a virtual company.
That returns the OPML Subscription List for the Twitter user named cluelessnewbie. This person subscribes to the top 100 most-followed people on Twitter (that's what makes him so clueless).
Apache Shindig is an OpenSocial container and helps you to start hosting OpenSocial apps quickly by providing the code to render gadgets, proxy requests, and handle REST and RPC requests.
<p>Natasha Lloyd unveiled an application she has built using OpenAmplify. According to Natasha, "Overall, I am impressed with OpenAmplify for two reasons. One, it provides a valuable service for free, and two, it uses a community model. Rather than building applications themselves, the OpenAmplify team provides the tools for other people to do it."</p>...
This is an open-source “spin-off” from the Simile project at MIT. Here we offer free, open-source web widgets, mostly for data visualizations. They are maintained and improved over time by a community of open-source developers.
SMOB is a distributed / decentralised microblogging system built on RDF and Semantic Web technologies, mainly SIOC and FOAF. Currently, we have simple prototypes of a publishing and an aggregating service, less than 100 lines of PHP code each.
Twitter2RDF. An RDF exporter for Twitter microblogs has been created that uses SIOC (for the microblog entries) and FOAF (for describing the people). For example, here are representations of Twitter microblogs for two users: captsolo and johnbreslin.
Virtuoso is an innovative Universal Server platform that delivers an enterprise level Data Integration and Management solution for SQL, RDF, XML, Web Services, and Business Processes.
This document provides a tutorial on how to publish Linked Data on the Web. After a general overview of the concept of Linked Data, we describe several practical recipes for publishing information as Linked Data on the Web.
The Resource Description Framework RDF allows you to describe web documents and resources from the real world—people, organisations, things—in a computer-processable way. Publishing such descriptions on the web creates the semantic web. URIs are very important as the link between RDF and the web. This article presents guidelines for their effective use. We discuss two strategies, called 303 URIs and hash URIs. We give pointers to several web sites that use these solutions, and briefly discuss why several other proposals have problems.
Linked Data is about using the Web to connect related data that wasn't previously linked, or using the Web to lower the barriers to linking data currently linked using other methods. More specifically, Wikipedia defines Linked Data as "a term used to describe a recommended best practice for exposing, sharing, and connecting pieces of data, information, and knowledge on the Semantic Web using URIs and RDF."
ircos is designed for visualizing genomic data such as alignments, conservation, and generalized 2D data, such as line, scatter, heatmap and histogram plots. Circos is very flexible — you can use it to visualize any kind of data, not just genomics.
Seinen Forschungsgegenstand, Microlearning, erklärt er im Video sehr gut und geht dabei auch die Chancen für Unternehmen ein, die sich ergeben, wenn diese erkennen, wie Mitarbeiter heute tatsächlich arbeiten! Mit der Einsicht in die Realität ist also schon viel erreicht.
