    I've discovered I must be able to inspect the current state of something I am bookmarking (who what where when etc) as I am bookmarking it

50 group limit - 15 views

    It would appear I've hit a hard limit with diigo of 50 groups created, to which help's reply has been unhelpful. While fish will jump with joy, this is a non-starter for me, my tool should not arbitrarily get in the way of me thinking. I am going to build my stuff elsewhere (likely amplify) (Eric if you are still paying attention, does Amplify have a limit on groups/topics or whatever you call this level of aggregation?) thanks all, will send postcards

    that would assume everyone is interested in everything, until such time as users can filter using facets to a feed they wish to get, then absolutely I will do just that, in fact tags and groups are very closely related and you should be able to freely turn a tag into a group when someone else wants to socially contribute with you. lateedah. skipping down the lane with my pink balloon, not bothered by you at all - oh look a butterfly

    the tool should not require me to stand on my head to think.. but that may be a temporary solution, time to experiment with multiple personality disorder, I fear I may enjoy it too much

    I may have to play with this, a lot of good ideas in one place, especially like to see what is described as 'simple threads' combining time order and context.. hmm

New Rules for the New Economy - 0 views

  • the technical specifications of the software that the Well used directly shaped the kind of community growing within it
  • Other models of conferencing software used elsewhere produced different kinds of communities
  • The Well's software--as implemented by the Well--encouraged linear conversations and community memory; it discouraged anonymity, but encouraged responsibility for words and topics; it permitted limited forms of dissent and retraction, and it allowed users to invent their own tools.

      reinforces our notion of allowing users to create structures and presentations as well as content, Bent was excited when Twine was allowing limited metadata definition, would be even better if we could specify whole aspects / objects as well as the presentation of either one or more than one of these aspects/ objects (photo presentation not the same as a list of photos presentation)

  • Peace through tools, not rules.

    an illustrious reverb on rules' importance in defining the emergent behaviors and shaping the quality of the interactions on a social site

Google Buzz? More Like Buzz Kill - Techtonic Shifts Blog - Newsweek.com - 3 views

  • mostly because nobody can figure out what it does or how it works, so that it exists only as a catnip toy for new media wanker-pundits who love it because it gives them something to blather on about

Can Google Generate Buzz in the Enterprise? - PCWorld Business Center - 2 views

  • A tool like Google Buzz, however, relies on the web of connections users have established in their social networks, and loses much of its appeal without the ability to integrate Picasa, YouTube, and other such services. Users don't want to have to manage dual personas, so Google needs to figure out how to integrate the enterprise and consumer services, but provide IT administrators with the tools necessary to restrict or deny access.

    or solve the more general problem and let people manage multiple identites and authorizations / grouping metadata sets

    a warning, that said single use software is really boring, so count me out if that's the idea, hence why I keep saying we're not going to make any money on this, so let's move on and get with creating the damn thing
  •  
    "I want it so I can use it" I think this is a fine vision for this project
  •  
    we have at least 10-ish people who deeply care, that translates to a statistical user base of considerably more, likely enough to fund this

    zigtag "search, save, share"
    ebay "buy,sell"

    possibles:
    share: recommend, propose, discuss, support, agree, disagree, express interest in, acknowledge interest in - consideration needs to be given to the intent of 'sharing', is it to get opinions, is it to collect highlights to combine and subordinate later (as a group, by yourself), is it to feed an interest of someone else you know (and you have no real interest in the thing)

    collect, read later, save, remember

    search: browse, get updates, measure buzz, locate friends in infosphere, collate, track, filter - we search for various reasons, what are they all?

    I have no time to continue right now, but I believe this is a rich discussion

    I do like hilighting to show, but would like to be seeing only my and my colleagues hilighting within the context I am navigating to that page from, likely with toggles for 'all comments' 'all highlighting' 'my highlighting only' - zigtag used a left side sidebar for contextual information (tags, who had saved etc) and on a wide screen with the normal widths of websites this was usually less annoying than the horizontal split diigo uses. I find the menu bar on diigo sufficient usually for non ambient context as I can always click the bookmark link and it will show me tags and where the url is shared already. It would be nice to fitz law that gesture like shooting the mouse pointer to left side of screen, or some gesture to pull it up, finding the little itty bitty bookmark target is annoying

    friend lists,

    should have public and private friend listings possible (you may have one category for the other party to see and another for your own internal organization, filtering, trust, attention etc settings - don`t want anyone getting upset now)

    should be able to use these lists for:
    messaging
    filtering
    assigning trust levels to
    paying attention to
    - presence alerts
    - posting alerts
    inviting
    ...?
