<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>Sehr geehrte Frau stellvertretende Vorsitzende der Gesellschafterversammlung der Bertelsmann AG,</p>
<p>aus persönlicher Erfahrung sind mir die Schwierigkeiten und Probleme bekannt, die ein harmonisches Miteinander in Deutschland bereiten können.<br />
Wenn ein ähh junger Mann in einem deutschen <a href="http://www.blog-sofitware.de/blog/?p=939" target="_blank">Blog </a>ganz offen bekennt, <em><strong>Lycos ist doof</strong></em>, dann verstehe ich, welcher Mut dazugehört.<br />
Denn trotz dieses Bekenntnisses möchte er gerne User bei Lycos iQ sein, dort leben und sich zu seinem Blödsinn öffentlich bekennen.<br />
Lycos ist seine Heimat, Ihr Unternehmen und unser Hobby.<br />
Dass die Normalität leider noch nicht eingekehrt ist, zeigt die Reaktion der Moderatoren.<br />
Sie ignorieren sein Ansinnen, wieder mitspielen zu dürfen. Sie nehmen sein Gejammer, seine Beschimpfungen und seine Beleidigungen nicht ernst.<br />
Weitaus bedauerlicher ist aber das Verhalten der Lycos-Geschäftsführung, die wegsieht, anstatt Stellung zu nehmen.<br />
Sie haben nichts gesehen, nichts gehört.<br />
Es gibt noch viel zu tun, bis Normalität einkehrt.<br />
Deswegen möchte ich an dieser Stelle auch meinen Dank an sie aussprechen, das Gemeinsame, Verbindende, in ihrer Amtszeit hervorzuheben.<br />
Damit auch bei LYCOS iQ ein versöhnlicher Ton einkehrt, bitte ich sie einfach einmal ein paar Worte mit irgendjemandem zu wechseln, den das ganze Gejammer interessieren könnte und insbesondere auf die nicht einfache Situation unschuldig verbannter nichtzahlender User aufmerksam zu machen.</p>
<p>Vielen Dank für ihr hervorgehobenes Bemühen für Verständigung.</p>
<p>Mit freundlichen Grüßen</p>
<p>-------</p>
<p>Sehr geehrte Frau Mohn, bitte nehmen Sie diesen Aufruf nicht ernst. Es ist nur Satire. Aber das wissen Sie ja.</p>

<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>Nüchtern betrachtet, sind die Vorgänge auf und um Lycos nichts anderes als unblutigster psychologischer Krieg. Krieg mit allen Mitteln, um Andersgläubige zu bekehren, zu unterjochen, zu vernichten...</p>
<p>Und gesteuert wird das von 3 großen Glaubensgemeinschaften (nein, weder Rom, noch Jerusalem oder gar Moskau haben die Finger drin):</p>
<ol>
<li>Wotinaten</li>
<li>Sofitinaten</li>
<li>Meenzerinaten</li>
</ol>
<p>Wobei natürlich zu beachten ist, dass die Wotinaten keine echte Rolle mehr spielen. Man könnte sie als kleine religiöse Splittergruppe betrachten. Sie haben sich in den Untergrund verzogen, weil ihr Herr und Anführer von den allzuweltlichen Kampftruppen des M.O.D. kurzerhand vom Sockel gestoßen wurde. Sein selbsternannter Stellvertreter auf Lycos ( V.S.O.P.) wurde dann auf allerhöchsten Befehl erst expatriiert und dann als persona non grata deklariert.</p>
<p>Das bringt uns zu den Sofitinaten. Diese urbayrische Splittergruppe der Wotinaten hat sich verselbständigt, als St. Matthias (Religionsstifter der Kirche zum Heiligen Jammerlappen) feststellen musste, dass St. Woti mit der Kirchenkasse durchbrannte und sämtliche Jünger belog und betrog. Eine weitere Untergruppe stellen die Encoristen dar. Mit Fug und Recht werden sie als Geheimbund betrachtet und dementsprechend von den Ordnungskräften bekämpft, wo immer sich eine Gelegenheit bietet. So manch heftiges Scharmützel wurde schon ausgetragen und viele der tapferen Ordnungskräfte wurden für ihren heldenhaften Einsatz schon mehrfach ausgezeichnet. Beseelt werden Sofitinaten und Encoristen von der Heiligen 13, einem unehelichen Bruder des Heiligen Geistes. Im Gegensatz zum Heiligen Geist vertraut die Heilige 13 niemandem und fühlt sich ständig verfolgt, verraten und vor allem verkauft.</p>
<p>Erst in jüngerer Zeit treten die Meenzerinaten verstärkt und vor allem geschlossen auf. Ihr Erkennungslied lautet:</p>
<p><em>„Hare Krishna Hare Krishna Krishna Krishna Hare Hare, Hare Rama Hare Rama Rama Rama Hare Hare.“</em></p>
<p>und bedeutet soviel wie:</p>
<p><em>"Haare wachset Haare wachset Wachset Haare Haare, Haare kommet Haare kommet kommet Haare Haare Haare."</em></p>
<p>Religionswissenschaftler der Uni Bielefeld vermuten, dass bei Amtsantritt des Obersten Meenzerinaten (auch Große Glatze genannt), diesem sämtliche Haare durch die ersten Einsetzungssprüche ausfallen und die gesamte Weltanschauungsgruppe von nun an für blühendes Haarwachstum zu sorgen hat.</p>
<p>Eine kleine und vor allem geheime Gruppe hat nun versucht, eine alle drei Weltanschauungsgruppen vereinende Liturgie zu erstellen.</p>
<p>Uns wurden heute nachmittag erste Einzelheiten zugespielt:</p>
<blockquote><p>Ehr sei dem Sofit und dem Woti, und der Heiligen Glatze. Wie es war im Anfang so wird es immer sein. Und von Ewigkeit zu Ewigkeit - Lycos ist doof....</p></blockquote>
<p>Die Reihenfolge der Erwähnung der Weltanschauungsgründungsmitglieder ergibt sich aus dem Zeitpunkt der Gründung. So hat Sofit wenigstens hier und jetzt einen ernstzunehmenden Ehrenplatz bekommen.</p>
<p>In der Hoffnung auf den Ewigen Frieden wollen wir gemeinsam rufen:</p>
<p><strong><em>Gloria in excelsis Deo<br />
et in terra pax hominibus bonae voluntatis.</em></strong></p>

<content:encoded><![CDATA[<blockquote><p>Beatus qui legit et qui audiunt verba prophetiae et servant ea quae in ea scripta sunt tempus enim prope est<br />
(Selig ist, der da liest und die da hören die Worte der Weissagung und behalten, was darin geschrieben ist; denn die Zeit ist nahe.)</p></blockquote>
<blockquote><p>et ego dico tibi quia tu es Petrus et super hanc petram aedificabo ecclesiam meam et portae inferi non praevalebunt adversum eam.</p></blockquote>
<p>Damals war auf einen Peter noch Verlass. Der Sohn Gottes vertraute ihm eine Gemeinschaft an, die knapp 2000 Jahre alle Skandale und Skandälchen mehr oder weniger unbeschadet überstanden hat.</p>
<p>Heute hingegen ist ein Peter kein Petrus mehr und ein Lamm Gottes nichts, was man verehren sollte. Nicht im Olymp und auch nicht im Wilden Westen.</p>
<p>In diesem Sinne:</p>
<blockquote><p>Miserere nostri, Domine, miserere nostri.<br />
Fiat misericordia tua Domine, super nos, quemadmodum speravimus in te.<br />
In te, Domine, speravi: non confundar in aeternum.</p></blockquote>
<p>Ach ja:<a href="http://iqmindless.files.wordpress.com/2008/07/dolly_sp.jpg"><img class="aligncenter size-full wp-image-25" src="http://iqmindless.wordpress.com/files/2008/07/dolly_sp.jpg" alt="" width="500" height="182" /></a></p>

<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>"WWW" or the phonetic "dub-dub-dub" is known to all who have somehow navigated to this page using some popular search engine. The internet today is one-stop information center - Whats the big deal here, why is everyone willing to do their business in this meta world?</p>
<p>We all grew up in this computing world knowing answers to all such questions but the real question always is have i got enough of the web?</p>
<p>@see <a title="http://www.worldwidewebsize.com/" href="http://www.worldwidewebsize.com/">http://www.worldwidewebsize.com/</a> all that one could predict is through the indexed pages on the search engine but the web is so vast that no prediction could be just.</p>
<p>Am I using the web the way i should, the content that i have zeroed upon is it the best thing available or is there anything else that is better. Sometimes i find that some of my friends have found a better page for a topic that i was looking? The Search Engines can never make of the context in which we are in while we make a search for example when i search for <a title="Ganymede" href="http://www.google.com/search?hl=en&#38;q=ganymede">"Ganymede"</a> using  Google what i get in return is Ganymede-the moon, but somehow in the context that i was referring to Ganymede the new Eclipse 3.4 unlike Ganymede the moon of Jupiter.</p>
<p>The answer as i see would be the new Web 2.0</p>
<p><span style='text-align:center; display: block;'><object width='425' height='350'><param name='movie' value='http://www.youtube.com/v/NLlGopyXT_g'></param><param name='wmode' value='transparent'></param><embed src='http://www.youtube.com/v/NLlGopyXT_g&rel=0' type='application/x-shockwave-flash' wmode='transparent' width='425' height='350'></embed></object></span></p>
<p>or the formulated Web 3.0</p>
<p><span style='text-align:center; display: block;'><object width='425' height='350'><param name='movie' value='http://www.youtube.com/v/WIm5txBm1YA'></param><param name='wmode' value='transparent'></param><embed src='http://www.youtube.com/v/WIm5txBm1YA&rel=0' type='application/x-shockwave-flash' wmode='transparent' width='425' height='350'></embed></object></span></p>

<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>I'm over it. Everywhere you look, it's Web 2.0, Web 2.0 … Some of the staff at my place of work didn't even know there was a Web 1.0 and I don't have the heart to tell them that there wasn't until Web 2.0 came along.</p>
<p>Now, just as they're coming to grips with Web 2.0, they've learnt from Google University that Web 3.0 is just around the corner. I don't have the heart to tell them that so far, it's actually just Web 2.1, but everyone inflates their version numbers to fool you into thinking that their thing is bigger than it really is …</p>
<p>Maybe we hang on to our labels way past their shelf life. We don't say 'Distance Education' all that much because on the web, it's all distance education. But we still use 'Flexible Learning', when it's all flexible learning - apart from the odd Boot Camp here and there.</p>
<p>And we still talk about 'Web 2.0' in a web world richly populated with collaborative, interactive, media-rich, multi-user experiences. Why? Once it might have been  appropriate to highlight the unique benefits of a small, new sector of the web experience by giving it a special label. But now, when the unique has become ubiquitous, what's the point?</p>
<p>Let's retire Web 2.0 as a label. If it's not all Web 2.0 now, it soon will be.</p>

<p><em><strong>Christopher Barnatt is the author of</strong></em> <a href="http://www.explainingcomputers.com/">explainingcomputers.com</a> and <span>Associate Professor of Computing and Organizations in <a href="http://www.nottingham.ac.uk/nubs/">Nottingham University Business School</a>. His series explaining computers, Web 2.0, and Cloud Computing allow both novice learners and experts the opportunity to add information to their own knowledge base. Barnatt's style of delivering his messages is unpretentious, completely thorough, and very approachable. </span></p>
<p><span style="text-decoration:underline;"><strong>What Is Cloud Computing?</strong></span></p>
<p><em><strong>Cloud computing according to Christopher</strong></em> is where "data, software applications, or computer processing power are accessed from a "cloud" of online resources."</p>
<p><em><strong>1. Cloud Computing permits individual users</strong></em> to access their data and  applications from any device.</p>
<p><em><strong>2. Businesses can reduce their "capital" costs </strong></em>by purchasing software and hardware as a "utility" service rather than buying the technologies outright</p>
<p><span style="text-decoration:underline;"><strong>SaaS aka Software As A Service</strong></span></p>
<p><em><strong>"Cloud computing is closely associated with Web 2.0 and a key element of both trends</strong></em> is the emergence of online applications aka  SaaS."  SaaS allows small businesses to access the same computing power and applications as large corporations without having to spend giant sums of money to own these technologies</p>
<p><span style="text-decoration:underline;"><strong>HaaS aka Hardware As A Service</strong></span></p>
<p>Hardware as a service allows businesses to purchase "computer processing capacity" over the web.</p>
<p><em><strong>Amazon's </strong></em>"<a href="http://www.amazon.com/gp/browse.html?node=201590011">Elastic Compute Cloud</a>" service allows users to pick and choose from a ala carte menu the services and storage products necessary for them to perform their tasks online at the highest cost savings available</p>
<p><em><strong>Google's</strong></em> "<a href="http://code.google.com/appengine/">App Engine</a>" service allows developers to run web applications on Google's infrastructure</p>
<p><span style="text-decoration:underline;"><strong>HaaS Advantages Amazon EC2 aka Elastic Compute Cloud<br />
</strong></span></p>
<p><em><strong>1. Elastic:</strong></em> allows users to increase or decrease their hardware requirements within minutes</p>
<p><em><strong>2. Flexible:</strong></em> because each user can choose the specification of each "individual instance" of computing power purchased</p>
<p><em><strong>3. Inexpensive:</strong></em> no capital investment (purchasing outright technologies) is required</p>
<p><em><strong>4. Reliable:</strong></em> EC2 uses Amazon's "proven data centers" and "network infrastructure</p>
<p><span style="text-decoration:underline;"><strong>Trend For Cloud Computing</strong></span></p>
<p><em><strong>The trend of Cloud Computing has been compared, according to Christopher, to the "development of the electricity network 100 years ago." </strong></em>At that time companies stopped having to create their own electricity and were able to "plug into a national electricity grid."</p>
<p>Cloud Computing represents the same model as individuals and business organizations can connect to a Cloud of computing resources.</p>
<p><span style="text-decoration:underline;"><strong>Utility Computing aka Cloud Computing</strong></span></p>
<p>No software installations are necessary. No hardware installations are necessary. No capital expenditures.</p>
<p><span style="text-decoration:underline;"><strong>Cloud Computing Devices: What are they and what are the benefits?<br />
</strong></span></p>
<p><em><strong>1. Low Power, Low Cost</strong></em></p>
<p><em><strong>2. "Cloud Book"</strong></em> a device that has been dubbed a "computing appliance"</p>
<p><em><strong>a.) </strong></em>Easy to use, easy to learn, ready to use</p>
<p><span style="text-decoration:underline;"><strong>What Does This All Represent?</strong></span></p>
<p><em><strong>1. Return to Centralization:</strong></em> An age where "data, applications, and processing power are largely remote from the user interface device."</p>
<p><em><strong>Analysis: </strong></em>This levels the playing field between small and large business, creates less drain on user assets, and it signals a collaboration of assets and knowledge on a world wide scale</p>
<p><em><strong>2. Centralized resources could spell "doom" for the Microsoft business </strong></em>model where  licensing and software products are pushed out to individual boxes. The era of loading software to an individual machine, maintaining the most current software operating systems, purchasing upgrades, and being forced to make expenditures on new software when the old software was still highly serviceable are going to be over</p>

<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>Im Prinzip sollten beide zusammengehören, wie Butter und Milch, Schoko und Keks, Pommes und Currywurst, Weißwurscht und Senf.</p>
<p>Im Prinzip... ist Sofitware ein netter Kerl, der bestimmt auch Freunde hat. Mindestens 4 sogar - und genau diese vier bejubeln sich mit mehr Vehemenz und mehr Verlogenheit als es jeder CSU-Parteitag hinbekäme.</p>
<p>Z. B. singt der Matthes das <a href="http://www.blog-sofitware.de/blog/?p=928" target="_blank">Hohelied </a>der Lycos-nahen Wikipedia mit der gleichen falschen Tonlage wie ein unterdurchschnittlich unbegabter DSDS-Kandidat. Er scheint zu ignorieren, dass nur durch seine und des bewaffneten Affen ständige Editierei der Punkt "Kritik" mehr Radierungen aufwies, als die Buchführung eines durchschnittlichen Tarnunternehmens der Mafia.</p>
<p>Merke: Wer fähige Kritik anbringen will, muss eine grundsätzliche Kritikfähigkeit aufweisen. Das könnte erklären, warum Sofitware, Volker13, Encore11 und Osmond bei Lycos nicht mehr mitspielen dürfen.</p>
<p>Diese Fünferbande war nicht fähig, Kritik zu ertragen oder fähige Kritik anzubringen.</p>
<p>Dafür aber postet er unvollständige <a href="http://www.blog-sofitware.de/blog/?p=923" target="_blank">Listen</a>. Spontan fallen uns noch einige Dinge ein:</p>
<p>k) Du heisst Sofitware, Encore11, Volker13, Wotanowski, V.S.O.P.</p>
<p>l) Du postest gerne rechtsradikalen Sondermüll</p>
<p>m) Du drohst anderen Usern mit Ungemach, wenn sie nicht dich wählen (das funktioniert mittlerweile auch bei der CSU nicht mehr...)</p>
<p>n) Du bist nicht kritikfähig</p>
<p>o) Du hast dich so oft danebenbenommen, dass du selbst bei Sofitware gesperrt bist</p>
<p>Weitere Ideen werden auch als Kommentar angenommen.</p>

<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>Saat ini terdapat milyar lebih halaman web di Internet. Berbagai informasi menjadi begitu banyaknya sehingga dalam keterbatasan waktu dalam upaya mencari informasi sangat sulit mencari info yang memang penting dan kita butuhkan. Bayangkan bila Anda ingin mencari info tentang rumah, ketika Anda mengetik rumah di google katakanlah muncul hasil query sebanyak 24 juta halaman (saya coba sendiri) jika kita cek satu-satu akan memakan banyak sekali waktu.</p>
<p>Perkembangan web berikutnya yang kerap dikatakan web 3.0 banyak menitik beratkan pada personalization. Salah satu fitur yang akan menjadi umum nantinya ialah kebaradaan smart agent.</p>
<p>Smart agent ialah program pintar yang dirancang untuk memfilter informasi berdasarkan kebutuhan orang yang memprogramnya, jadi jika saya membutuhkan rumah yang nyaman dengan harga murah dikawasan Kemang Jakarta misalnya, saya bisa memasukkan input ke program itu, dan program tersebut akan mencari data yang saya butuhkan dan menyajikannya dalam short list rekomendasi tanpa saya harus bersusa payah mencarinya.</p>
<p>Dalam beberapa hal bahkan smart agent ini bisa diprogram untuk mencari data sesuai dengan preference kita berdasarkan data search dan browsing sebelumnya.</p>
<p>Bisnis terutama yang berbasis web harus menyadari kemunculan smart agent ini, karena dengan keberadaan smart agent ini ada beberapa playing rule yang berubah seperti optimalisasi web untuk search engine jadi tidak akan lebih di arahkan pada bagaimana smart agent ini mencari informasi.</p>

<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>Wie wir alle wissen, ist ein zentraler Bestandteil von iQ das Punkte- und Rängesystem. Und es ist ebenso ein zentraler Bestandteil der Kritik an iQ (zumindest bei normalen Usern. Andere finden das Fehlen demokratischer Strukturen und das Unterdrücken der verfassungsmäßig garantierten Meinungsfreiheit schlimmer - oder die Tatsache, dass sie nicht Moderator wurden / werden; manchmal auch alles gleichzeitig...)</p>
<p>Im Gegensatz zur realen Welt ist aber niemand da, der dem Bertelsmann-eigenen Geheimdienst für 400.000 BP eine PN mit den Namen der grössten Punkteschiebern verkauft. Das muss der OSD (der externe Dienst des M.O.D. - Ministry of Deactivation) noch immer durch gute alte Laufarbeit, Bestechung und Erpressung herausfinden.</p>
<p>Ebenfalls im Gegensatz zur realen Welt wird ein überführter Punktehinterzieher nicht eingesperrt, sondern rausgeworfen. Man erinnere sich da nur des Wotanowski-Skandals.</p>
<p>Nun kristalisiert sich dank eines <a title="Marc Pentermann" href="http://forum.lycos.de/showpost.php?p=64995&#38;postcount=5" target="_blank">Marc Pentermann</a> heraus, dass der grösste Kämpfer für Frieden und Freiheit (nein, nicht der Dalai Lama) in seinem früheren Lycos-Leben mit Punkten gedealt hat, als ob es hier um reinstes Kokain ginge.</p>
<p>Der Matthes hat na ja nicht direkt Punkte geschoben, aber er hat Punkte sagen wir mal hinterzogen. Im Gegensatz zu Dietmar brauchte er dafür keinen Spezl, der ihm den schwarzen Koffer virtuell hin- und herträgt - der Mattes hat dafür nur ganz viele Links gespeichert.</p>
<p>Klar, dass der Mattes das nicht einfach so durchgehen lassen darf. Jetzt packt er seine schlimmste Waffe aus (nein, keine Weißwurscht) - viel schlimmer: <a href="http://www.blog-sofitware.de/blog/?p=915" target="_blank">er argumentiert den armen Marc in Grund und Boden</a>. Immerhin hat er (der Marc) ja keine Ahnung vom Aufbau einer Wissenscommunity. Jetzt sagt jeder: Ok, muss er die denn haben? Will er denn eine aufbauen?</p>
<p>Mir stellt sich nur eine Frage: Gabs da nicht mal ein Gegenstück zu Lycos iQ? Mit Milliarden Punkten finanziert aus dem Europäischen Strukturausgleich? Ein griechisch/bayerisches Joint Venture? Den <a title="Klogriff ähh Blogriff" href="http://www.blogriff.de" target="_blank">Klogriff ähh Blogriff</a> des Jahres 2007?</p>
<p>Mattes: Warum lehnst Dich eigentlich immer dann so weit aus dem Fenster, wenn die Schwerkraft ganz laut "HIER" brüllt.</p>
<p>Weisst, würde Deine Wissenscommunity auch nur länger als 3 Tage laufen - dann (und nur dann) dürftest Du Marc das vorwerfen.</p>
<p>Aber so solltest Du einfach mal ganz elegant die Schnauze halten und nicht auf die Idee kommen, dass Deine Punktehinterziehung so legal war, wie Du es gerne hättest.</p>

<description><![CDATA[What we&#8217;re thinking about together in this series of posts is an &#8220;ideal&#8221; interface]]></description>
<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>What we're thinking about together in this series of posts is an "ideal" interface (or portal/dashboard) that will allow for a more efficient and personalized web experience. There are many very cool applications and functions scattered all over the internet - however, this fragmentation brings with it a lot of frustration. Is is possible to make a very cool application (code name: <strong>MetaMee</strong>) that will simplify our lives? That's what we're exploring.</p>
<p>If you're just arriving for the first time, I'd strongly suggest a quick read of <a href="http://brandimpact.wordpress.com/2008/07/07/one-interface-to-rule-them-all-1/" target="_blank">part 1</a>, <a href="http://brandimpact.wordpress.com/2008/07/08/one-interface-to-rule-them-all-2/" target="_blank">part 2</a>, and <a href="http://brandimpact.wordpress.com/2008/07/11/one-interface-to-rule-them-all-3/" target="_blank">part 3</a> for context and backstory so that this one will make more sense.</p>
<p>We've looked at the very basics of the 5 main functions that would go into the dashboard/interface, and some of the me-centric personalization capabilities that would make on-line life simpler. Now let's step back and look at data flow, and for that, we'll need one of my classic ugly Powerpoint drawings:</p>
<p><a href="http://brandimpact.files.wordpress.com/2008/07/metamee-data-flow.jpg"><img class="aligncenter size-full wp-image-766" src="http://brandimpact.wordpress.com/files/2008/07/metamee-data-flow.jpg" alt="" width="500" height="351" /></a></p>
<p>OK, let's look at these items one at a time and see how it works together.</p>
<p>The <strong>MeeStream</strong> (Out) is all my "stuff" that I'm putting out to the web. MetaMee would allow me to auto-login to all my data stores, and through the MetaMee interface and/or widgets from the various sites, more easily determine what gets published where, when, and how. All my <a href="http://brandimpact.wordpress.com/2008/05/05/share-media-vs-tell-media/" target="_blank">ShareMedia</a> (Share <strong>Mee</strong>dia...?) gets funneled through this dashboard, making it easier also to track the stuff. People can then subscribe to <strong>Mee</strong>, or to whatever aspects of my stream interest them.</p>
<p>The <strong>MeeStream</strong> (In) is my subscription list. I'm subscribing to people, to information, to news, to videos, to e-commerce deals...to whatever is out there that interests me. Maybe I like <a href="http://tangerinetoad.blogspot.com/" target="_blank">Tangerine Toad</a>'s blog, and I subscribe; but as time goes on, I want to see everything that the Toad (Alan Wolk) puts out there - Tweets, photos, what have you. Click - done.</p>
<p>My Intell-Agents (see <a href="http://brandimpact.wordpress.com/2008/07/11/one-interface-to-rule-them-all-3/" target="_blank">part 3</a>) are monitoring my MeeStream, learning from my ratings and preferences, and suggesting new resources for my consideration.</p>
<p>The <strong>MeeVault</strong> (I have borrowed the "Vault" term from Microsoft's HealthVault initiative) is the family jewels underlying this dashboard. It is strictly local (MetaMee is a hybrid local/on-line application as I see it), and I have full control over the settings of what information is exposed, when, how, and to whom/to what. My personal information is "layered" into different levels, with full ID and purchasing info in the most secure area of the vault, only be released when I've decided to make an e-commerce purchase. The MeeVault feeds the "Settings" area, and we'd use those settings to expose or veil various layers of our identity with all of our web transactions.</p>
<p>What about privacy? If I'm sending out Intell-Agents with my preferences, and various information points are coming back into my stream, maybe I don't want the world to know what I'm interested in. That where a P1 setting or <strong>APP</strong> (Anonymous Persona &#38; Preferences) comes in. This is my "stub" residing out there on the front edge of MetaMee, talking to the Internet cloud. My anonymous persona communicates to the internet what I like, what my "similars" are, what I'm seeking - but it does not identify me. This way, our various APPs can communicate similars to each other and help us find more of what we want, but without compromising our full identity.</p>
<p>Let me pick on Tangerine Toad again. For a long time, very few people knew that the man behind the Tangerine curtain was Alan Wolk. But there was a persona out there, Tangerine Toad, and you could actually know a good bit about whomever was hiding behind that ID - you could see his interests, discover his similars, learn from him...all without knowing it was Alan. Similarly, our APP stub allows us to express the full range of our interests and find matching resources in a "safe mode," before exposing our identity.</p>
<p>Admittedly, this is a lot to digest, and "there be dragons" here in the many technical details. What are your thoughts? You technical/programming types - is this out beyond the stratosphere, or is it do-able? Would love to get your feedback as we crowd-create this (very rough) blueprint of an ideal web dashboard...</p>

<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>Well, most people often get confused when they read these terms. Web 3.0 and SEO are interrelated and to understand them in a better way, let us learn both these terms separately.</p>
<p>Web 3.0 or the semantic web is a web revolution. Here, the contents of web are in an easy expressive form. Software professionals and even SEO specialists can then interpret, understand as well as use these contents to find, share and integrate information easily and more conveniently than ever.</p>
<p>The features of web 3.0 include tagging, taxonomies, social networks. These features give better interactivity to individuals. Web 3.0 technologies are used in professional SEO services, interoperability, open technologies, open APTs, protocols, open software platforms, and mobile Internet.</p>
<p>The evolution of Web 3.0 has tremendously improved programmed database searches, thereby helping people to select different types of data such as picking vital information, relevant details or choosing vacation destinations.</p>
<p>Now, that you have some idea as what web 3.0 is, let us understand what SEO is.</p>
<p><strong>What is SEO?</strong></p>
<p>SEO is an acronym of Search Engine Optimization. It is a method to make your blog or web site, attain top ranks in major search engines. Here, you need to make proper use of keywords that relate to your products or services and position them in HTML. This increases the traffic flow to your web sites and helps you earn more profits.</p>
<p>In simple words, SEO is a sort of marketing strategy for web sites. Professionals such as SEO writers, SEO specialists, and professional SEO consultants are familiar with the working of search algorithms, mentality of Internet users, what such users look for. They create SEO rich web pages, web sites and SEO articles, so that people can easily locate those web sites.</p>
<p>Therefore, if you are an Internet marketer or have a blog to post and are planning to hire an SEO consultant, you need to choose the SEO services, which have enough experience and are efficient in WEB 3.0.</p>
<p>Be wary of doorway pages because some deceptive SEO specialists may mislead your content to some other sites. If this happens, then search engines will remove your site from their index. Since it is ultimately you hiring a company, you need to be sure to select a credible SEO company.</p>
<p>Thus, WEB 3.0 and SEO are very competitive endeavors, which require intense concentration and a thorough in-depth understanding of web features, search engine algorithms and mechanisms. The revolution is coming!</p>

<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>Selon Gartner Research, le Web 3.0 représentera un univers virtuel en trois dimensions où nous pourrons naviguer sur le Web par l'entremise d'un avatar et ce, à travers plusieurs sites Internet.</p>
<p>Il est plausible de penser que Google vient de faire un premier pas dans cette direction avec le lancement version beta du réseau social <a href="http://fr.youtube.com/watch?v=5YbwfOucET8">Lively</a>.</p>
<p><!--more--></p>
<p><strong>Description</strong></p>
<p>Chaque individu ayant un compte courriel de Google peut déjà installer et tester ce réseau social. Je vous avouerai que le téléchargement est parfois interminable, mais disons que nous excuserons Google puisqu'il s'agit d'une version beta.</p>
<p>La particularité de cet espace virtuel est que Google offre le code de chacune des "chambres virtuelles" à ceux désirant l'intégrer ailleurs sur le Web, un peu comme le concept de <a href="http://sproutbuilder.com/">Sprout</a> pour ces widgets. Ainsi, partout sur le Web où Lively sera intégré, mon avatar pourra se joindre à la "chambre virtuelle" en me connectant à l'aide de mon compte courriel Google.</p>
<p>Google Lively semble être la combinaison du concept de <a href="http://www.weblin.com/home.php?room=fr1">Weblin</a>, où l'individu navigue à travers le Web et voit les autres avatars présents sur les pages qu'il visite comme Google, Hotmail, Radio-Canada, etc. et de <a href="http://secondlife.com/">Second Life</a>.</p>
<p>Encore une fois, Google innove et Lively risque d'être un réseau social à suivre au cours des mois à venir. L'image que vous trouverez ci-dessous est lors de ma première visite dans cet univers.</p>
<p><a href="http://julielemonde.files.wordpress.com/2008/07/google-lively1.jpg"><img class="aligncenter size-medium wp-image-50" src="http://julielemonde.wordpress.com/files/2008/07/google-lively1.jpg?w=300" alt="" width="300" height="270" /></a></p>

<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p><a href="http://mobilemarketingcafe.files.wordpress.com/2008/07/web-30-socialweb-rubik.png"><img class="alignright size-medium wp-image-55" src="http://mobilemarketingcafe.wordpress.com/files/2008/07/web-30-socialweb-rubik.png?w=291" alt="" width="291" height="300" /></a></p>
<p style="text-align:justify;">In 1989 we were all connected  by the World Wide Web. Now we're trying to keep pace with Web 2.0: real interaction between users, information sharing, online collaboration (wiki) and virtual communities. Marketing is just trying to  became accoustomed to this, expecially its mobile version (with extra possibilities).</p>
<p style="text-align:justify;">In the meantime the creator of WWW is paving the ground for further web deelopment. In an Interview to the <a href="http://technology.timesonline.co.uk/tol/news/tech_and_web/article3532832.ece">'TimesOnline</a><a href="http://technology.timesonline.co.uk/tol/news/tech_and_web/article3532832.ece">'</a> Sir Tim berners-Lee said that in the future every little fragment of information will be connected with each other in the web. We're are moving to the Semantic Web, Web 3.0, that will allow to realize networks between every type of contents between web-based connections.<br />
The Semantic utopia is to represent every information to allow to identify relevant&#38;appropriate connections to other information.</p>
<p style="text-align:justify;">Is still a 'strange to say' concept, but it promises great apllications to come. Imagine for the pharmaceutical industry the possibility to establish connections between researches of new disease treatments or drugs. The applications will be infinite, as the possibility to identify every step of the production and distribution of a product.</p>
<p style="text-align:justify;">We can sit down and see what is to come, or perhaps we can take part actively, maybe learning from someone that is already trying technology that involves semantic devices (as  <a href="http://widetag.com/">WideTag Inc</a>).</p>
<p style="text-align:justify;">Whatever you choose, the web will reach 3.0.</p>

<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>La semana pasado asistí a una serie de conferencias organizadas por la empresa ISOCO <a href="http://www.isoco.es">http://www.isoco.es</a> en el marco de la web semántica y el concepto Web 3.0, una de las ponencias fue de Enrique Dans, que además de ser profesor en el Instituto Empresa es autor de uno de los blogs más leídos de España y que os aconsejo <a href="http://www.enriquedans.com">http://www.enriquedans.com </a>. La conferencia de Enrique ha sido una de las mejores a las que he asistido en los últimos años, el confiesa que es normal que domine el tema ya que como académico la sociedad le permite hacerlo, pero personalmente a mi me abrió los ojos sobre como la tecnología y las redes sociales que todos ya conocemos están afectando nuestra forma de vida y comunicación, como por ejemplo:</p>
<p><a href="http://www.facebook.com">http://www.facebook.com </a><br />
<a href="http://www.twiter.com">http://www.twiter.com</a><br />
<a href="http://www.flickr.com">http://www.flickr.com</a><br />
<a href="http://del.icio.us">http://del.icio.us</a></p>
<p>Esta afectación es especialmente fuerte en los más jóvenes que entienden que la comunicación online como lo más normal del mundo, cuando hace 5 años era una utopía y no solo eso, ahora los medios tradicionales se encuentran con la disyuntiva de que han perdido el control del medio porque el control lo tienen los usuarios que deciden cuando quieren ver determinado programa, hoy en día no hace falta ver la tele para disfrutar tu programa favorito o bailar con el video de tu artista favorito basta con buscarlo en <a href="http://www.youtube.com">www.youtube.com</a> y por arte de magia ahí está.</p>
<p>Otro concepto interesante fue el de descarga, si lo piensas bien para que descargar el contenido, si está ahí y no solo eso, ese contenido evolucionará no es inmutable como lo ha sido hasta ahora como por ejemplo un libro que compras y guardas en una estantería, además ese contenido es ya hoy en día accesible prácticamente desde cualquier dispositivo.</p>
<p>Bueno como os he dicho os aconsejo su blog y si no os apetece leer más os dejo un video de una conferencia suya, que la disfrutéis.</p>
<p><span style='text-align:center; display: block;'><object width='425' height='350'><param name='movie' value='http://www.youtube.com/v/lEsLwT1It0s'></param><param name='wmode' value='transparent'></param><embed src='http://www.youtube.com/v/lEsLwT1It0s&rel=0' type='application/x-shockwave-flash' wmode='transparent' width='425' height='350'></embed></object></span></p>

<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>Seems that the industry continues to develop from both sides: web-based plataforms and storage.</p>
<p>When I saw an <a href="http://news.cnet.com/8301-10784_3-9986194-7.html" target="_blank">article</a> on <a href="http://cnet.com">C-Net </a>about the new-generation TeraByte Hard-drive I confess that I asked myself: "Why so much?" (I asked the same question 5 years ago when my friend bought a 250GB HD).</p>
<p>No, I'm not getting old, I'm asking again because 5 years ago we didn't have <a href="http://gmail.com">Gmail</a>, <a href="http://flickr.com">Flickr</a> and neither <a href="http://youtube.com">YouTube</a>.</p>
<p>Since 2006, I think I've downloaded about 10 or 15 albums. Not too much, and do  you know why? I just listen to the music on my mp3 player on my way to work, and here I listen everything online. Yes, 100% online.</p>
<p>Same for my pictures and videos. I just get the best of them and upload on YouTube and Flickr. If I want to watch something cool I can easily find there, or on <a href="http://vimeo.com">Vimeo</a>, <a href="http://metacafe.com">Metacafe</a>, <a href="http://dailymotion.com">DailyMotion</a>.. whatever! After watching I get the link and send to all my friends. I don't need to attach a 5MB file in my email. I also love to embed videos on my Blog. It's dead easy and I don't need to store that giga video.</p>
<p>We are <a href="http://technologysource.org/article/digital_natives_digital_immigrants/">digital immigrants</a> and sometimes we may keep their files saved on our computers, some may keep some dvds and <a href="http://news.cnet.com/8301-10784_3-9986194-7.html">blu-ray</a> disks on their shelves. That's because our clients still don't trust the internet, and because we are still not connected all the time (most of them, but not all).</p>
<p>Maybe I'm just a passionate geek that loves the internet, but it's even more common to keep your files stored online. Even my mum' sends me YouTube links! Everybody is sharing, publishing and commenting.</p>
<p>Yes, afterall we may need some space.</p>
