Blog about web 2.0 and why it's unsatisfactory for one user. She goes on to say that Second Life, although it doesn't do any of the jobs as well as specialist sites, overall does all of them well enough.

Social bookmarking allows individuals to share resources and links. Del.icio.us and Digg are two prominent examples. Digg and del.icio.us are surprisingly effective at capturing the zeitgeist within a group of web users. Bookmarks grow in popularity based on how frequently they are saved. Bookmarking serves as an information filter - if thousands of individuals found a particular resource to be valuable (or at least of interest), it can be assumed to be of greater significance or originality.

The Open Directory Project is the largest, most comprehensive human-edited directory of the Web. It is constructed and maintained by a vast, global community of volunteer editors. The Republic of the Web The web continues to grow at staggering rates. Automated search engines are increasingly unable to turn up useful results to search queries. The small paid editorial staffs at commercial directory sites can't keep up with submissions, and the quality and comprehensiveness of their directories has suffered. Link rot is setting in and they can't keep pace with the growth of the Internet. Instead of fighting the explosive growth of the Internet, the Open Directory provides the means for the Internet to organize itself. As the Internet grows, so do the number of net-citizens. These citizens can each organize a small portion of the web and present it back to the rest of the population, culling out the bad and useless and keeping only the best content. The Definitive Catalog of the Web The Open Directory follows in the footsteps of some of the most important editor/contributor projects of the 20th century. Just as the Oxford English Dictionary became the definitive word on words through the efforts of volunteers, the Open Directory follows in its footsteps to become the definitive catalog of the Web. The Open Directory was founded in the spirit of the Open Source movement, and is the only major directory that is 100% free. There is not, nor will there ever be, a cost to submit a site to the directory, and/or to use the directory's data. The Open Directory data is made available for free to anyone who agrees to comply with our free use license. The Internet Brain The Open Directory is the most widely distributed data base of Web content classified by humans. Its editorial standards body of net-citizens provide the collective brain behind resource discovery on the Web. The Open Directory powers the core directory services for the Web's largest and most popular search

Two days ago Stephen Wolfram gave an early preview of his "computational knowledge engine" Wolfram Alpha at a talk at Harvard University. The video of the whole presentation (1h 45min long) is here above, while down below you can find some highlights I transcripted from his speech.

I've been blatantly cheating at foursquare for the past week. I didn't mean to start the week this way. Most of my friends know me as a responsible father who occasionally plays piano at local open mics, and makes puzzles.

Here we take a look at exactly who is using the Internet the most, how they are using it and how much the amount of usage is increasing. At a glance, we can see that there are the same number of men and women who use the Internet. However, their age, educational background and level of income may influence how much time they spend online.

At last, a method for making Twitter's 140 character limit seem less annoying!I'm still ironing the kinks out but it seems to be working pretty well. Now I have to learn Morse Code which is bloody annoying. At least I only need to learn to write it! It's Tweetagraph and not Twittergraph because Twitter doesn't like you using the word "twitter" if you are tapping into their API. Fair enough I guess. Teletweet is an option too, but the Teletubby connection is too strong for me.

Find my Norton antivirus account has been making antivirus software since viruses have been written. A quick look down the aisle of any computer shop you will see the bright yellow Norton package staring at you right in the face screaming "install me!". Norton Antivirus is hit with so many. Simple installation, easy to use, good customer service. Norton ticks many of the boxes when looking for antivirus software. But be sure to look beyond the shiny yellow packaging and see that Norton may not be quite at glamorous as it seems. Difficult uninstalls and lack of advanced features leave many stuck on the fence.
