several new features
-
mainly to facilitate the use of common tags
-
overcome Wikipedia’s limitations as a controlled vocabulary for semantic tags
-
common, “semantic” tags are unique, well-defined concepts
-
Is it possible to make semantic tags as flexible as classic ones? Can humans accept and love the format intended for machines?
-
Enhanced tagging interface
-
added in free form, resembling classic tagging
-
possible to use custom names for tags
-
If Faviki doesn’t understand a tag provided by a user, it will ask her to disambiguate it. It will then remember her choice
-
Faviki “learns” about user’s name of the tag
-
-
custom names for tags can also be modified explicitly on the Tag page.
-
Defining new tags
-
added the same way as Wikipedia tags. The difference is that, this time, Google search is not restricted to Wikipedia’s domain
-
only a few of the top results are allowed to be selected
-
users collaboratively create new tags
-
Users collaboratively decide the best URLs for a concept
-
Title, URL, a little text and a thumbnail, with sources. Compare the two. Answer yes or no. Perfect!
-
-
Save/Edit API
-
a simple API that provides a way to save and edit bookmarks from other applications.

-
Semantic tags will be a core building block of the next-generation web
-
leveraging the popular Wikipedia as a vast source of a universal controlled vocabulary
-
Wikipedia can serve as a great controlled vocabulary for tags
-
Every concept is unique, has a unique URI,
-
well-defined.
-
DBpedia did a very good job of extracting the structure or semi-structure
-
and expressing it in RDF
-
or a machine readable way.
-
Faviki helps users remove the ambiguity otherwise surrounding free text tags’ meaning.
-
You can use some concrete concepts as tags
-
yourself as the author as a tag
-
specific organizations or companies or people or specific ideas as tags
-
DBpedia’s linking between the various language versions of Wikipedia
-
users tag in 14 different languages
-
English as the universal reference
-
Common Tag
-
last month, Faviki added the ability for users to use their own keywords or tags in a freeform way
-
and map them to semantic tags
-
connecting tagging with searching to accomplish this.
-
the new release lets users create new tags outside of Wikipedia, using Google returns from the whole world of web pages
-
users collaborate on which URLs are the best candidates for new concepts.
-
-
URL tags are not so clear as dbpedia
-
a bit more messy
-
a bit more dynamic,
-
but the idea was to make it semi-automatic. People make them and disambiguate them while adding tags
-
some kind of compromise.
-
Next steps for Faviki are around connecting with other services such as del.i.cious, Twitter, and Facebook, to make it easier for users to try it out.
-
Some longer-term plans would be to publish data from Faviki in linked data, to connect to the rest of inked data,
-
making that data queryable to developers via SPARQL.
-
by opening the data, because that’s the idea of the semantic web, to make the data open and connect easily to various sources
-
as much a platform as an application
-
mappings between free tags’ association and some uniquely identified concepts will be very important
-
-
that kind of data will be interesting to developers.
-
Recommended reading for anyone interested in tagging, semantic tagging or the semantic web.

Faviki - Social bookmarking tool using smart semantic Wikipedia (DBpedia) tags - 0 views

Left to right: * triangular switch to close (hide detail) or open — green switch for other user's bookmarks — amber switch for your own bookmarks * favicon of the bookmarked item * username of the most recent networker * title of the bookmarked item — font size a little greater than the norm * date or time of networking — font size a little less than the norm + save + spam? — these options appear when you curse over the date/time. When the bookmark is open, detail comprises: * highlight from the page * personal note * tags — Common Tag — as you curse over each one, its definition * popularity — the number of people who have networked the bookmarked item + overview — this option appears subtly when you curse over the number. Example Faviki overviews http://www.faviki.com/webpage/wave.google.com_28277 and http://www.faviki.com/webpage/esw.w3.org_12350 suggest that early adopters of Faviki may not make greatest use of highlights and notes, but that's a separate topic …

Our plan is to contribute our changes back to the WebKit community

conversation at http://webkit.org/contact.html
-
Our modification can be found within the Perforce depot.
-
integrate our changes back into the WebKit source repository at webkit.org
-
the WebKit shared library will not contain any platform specific code
-
For the near term, WebKit will have platform specific code

to rasterize vector graphics generated by the HTML renderer
-
Project Plans
-
we use Cairo Source for WebKit
-
we use CoreGraphics
-
2008-06-03

-
Will AIR applications be deployable in Google Chrome OS? Or, is this possibility reduced by Adobe's changes to WebKit? When and how will Adobe's changes to WebKit become available at webkit.org? Defocusing from Adobe: is there now less platform-specific code within WebKit? How soon might the goal — no platform-specific code — be realised?
