Phil Wolff: Blue Sky RadioThinking about the next generation of Radio UserLand and Manila. Exercises in Distributed Product Management and Collective wish list fulfillment.RSS from BugTracker- August 30, 2003 "manmachinelogo"Marc Pasc: As I linked, recently folks mentioned bug trackers as weblogs. My bug tracker of choice is Roundup, and I've been feeling the similarity some, though at the aggregation end: I've been quite wanting Roundup to publish RSS somehow. So last night when I should've been sleeping, after a false start trying to make an RSS template, I wrote a Roundup detector that writes "RSS 2.0." (Ugh, am I ever feeling it today.) I put RSS 2.0 in scare quotes because it doesn't...http://markpasc.org/weblog/2003/08/28_roundup_rss Semantic Blogging Demonstrator: follow-up.- August 27, 2003 The New Scientist article came out (nothing online). From the project blog. The semantic blogging demonstrator has quite a broad scope. The idea is to enrich a blog with semantic metadata and then to do cool things with that metadata. The article describes a way to get metadata into the blog in the first place, using assisted categorisation. That is indeed an essential part of the picture. But once we have that, we can use that metadata to drive the blog view (semantic view), guide our...http://jena.hpl.hp.com:3030/blojsom-hp/blog/news/swade/?permalink=1E117E427264A89908AD84CC... Semantic Blogging and the HP demonstrator.- August 24, 2003 About three weeks' ago I responded to an inquiry from New Scientist reporter Duncan Graham-Rowe about HP's semantic blogging project. This post updates my comments to Duncan, my posts from this blog, and contributions to the Pie wiki. Steve Cayzer presented Semantic Blogging for Bibliography Management at the 2003 Blogtalk conference. HP labs is running the project as one of several semantic web demonstration pilots. Bloggers get to add research-appropriate...http://www.hpl.hp.com/semweb/biblio.htm John Robb to Google: Match ads to the post, not the page.- August 18, 2003 This would allow the inclusion of ads within RSS (not ad boxes, but simple text with the label advertisement). I really don't want to see ads in my RSS, but it is inevitable. For qualified content, like what I am working on with the Weblog Network, it is a must. Won't you have greater matching precision by looking at all the posts in a given feed "akasig"http://jrobb.mindplex.org/2003/08/17.html#a3531 The web can know me.- August 18, 2003 Steve Kirks reimagines the future of blogging. It is a beautiful, elegant vision. I want the drugs he's taking. Create a different kind of aggregator, one that's a browser first and RSS reader second. Read the rest...http://www.houseofwarwick.com/2003/08/16.html#a160 Education needs semantic blogging.- August 18, 2003 via Raymond Yee, Terry Anderson's talk at Merlot2003 Beyond Learning Objects: Towards the Educational Semantic Web, reported by Greg Ritter.http://www.tenreasonswhy.com/weblog/archives/2003/08/06/merlot_beyond_learning_objects_tow... RSS Flow, Measured.- August 11, 2003 Tim Bray measured the RSS traffic to his personal weblog. He came up with these numbers for a day with one change: 11,526 GET requests (about 8 per minute) 8,901 returned the no-change (code 304) 77% 2,625 returned the data (code 200). 23% 359 HEAD requests. 1,374 unique IP addresses. Tim's work with Antarctica.net touches thousands of people. His professional network will be early adopters, so tracking Tim's blog would be natural. Of note, Tim made a change. "The code that changes the...http://www.tbray.org/ongoing/When/200x/2003/08/02/RSSNumbers Scaling Echo: P2P and Cached Feeds, and Ping Servers.- August 10, 2003 About four weeks' ago I wrote about Scaling Echo: P2P and Cached Feeds. I drew a few conclusions: The syndicated blogosphere will reach 300 million feeds in 3 years Feed payloads will grow 100 to 10,000 times Each reader may consume 1000 feeds Syndication Growth = Denial Of Service Two architectures will support this scale: Peer-To-Peer (P2P) Caching by intermediaries (communal aggregators) Jevon wrote about scaling new post pinging. We need to have aggregators that send their...http://www.dijest.com/aka/categories/klogs/2003/07/13.html An interview with RSSJobs creator, Steve Rose.- August 5, 2003 I've been following two things very closely for many years: content syndication and labor markets. Last week RSSJobs was announced, bringing the two together. Here's my interview with Steve Rose who built RSSJobs. What inspired or provoked you to create RSSJobs It was a combination of things. First was the frustration with my own job hunt. Like many IT professionals, I was unemployed for 6 months. When I did finally find a job, it was for half my previous pay, and in a environment I never...http://rssjobs.com/ I Want Something New .- August 4, 2003 Brad Wilson's I Want Something New thread. I want new blog software. Now, there's nothing wrong with the crop of blog software out there, but it all pretty much works the same. I'm not even sure what I want different... I just want something different. What I want, really, is something so radically different that it's hard to even call it "blog software". My contribution to the thread... Blog anything. On request, blog more richly structured things (like sports scores, recipes, SAP...http://dotnetguy.techieswithcats.com/archives/003665.shtml |
