The end of the affair

Vanavond naar [http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/The_End_of_the_Affair The end of the affair] geweest. Georganiseerd door de [http://www.filmliga.nl/ Filmliga Heuvelrug].

Een nogal slome film die zich voortsleept rond de tweede wereldoorlog in London. Sarah is getrouwd met Henry. Henry is meer met z’n werk bezig en ziet Sarah niet of nauwelijks staan. Sarah ontmoet Maurice en de liefde vlamt op.

Sarah gelooft niet in God of andere krachten. Doet wel de hartewens dat Maurice weer tot leven komt nadat een V2 Maurice dodelijk heeft getroffen. Doet tevens de belofte dat als dat gebeurt ze Maurice nooit meer zal ontmoeten. De wens komt uit… Ze draait om als een blad van een boom en geloofd vanaf dat moment wel in God. Maurice haat alleen maar zichzelf en al het andere en wordt geleefd door jaloezie.

Heeft veel ‘[http://wiki.aardrock.com/Law_of_Attraction Law of Attraction]’ en ‘Intention Experiment’ als je er voor open staat.

Mooi gefilmd. Wel “heel oud”, echt jaren 40.

Joost—free TV with a peer-to-peer community


From http://www.joost.com/about.html:

:What’s Joost? It’s free TV, with the choice to watch alone or with friends. Joost is packed with internet tools such as instant messaging and channel chat, allowing people to really share the TV experience.

:It’s a completely secure platform for content owners that respects their rights, while protecting and enhancing their brands. And it’s an incredibly flexible way for advertisers to reach a truly global audience, in ways that really work. Joost isn’t just video on the internet – it’s the next generation of television for viewers, content owners and advertisers everywhere.

Grown from a handful of people in a small office outside Amsterdam. [http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Niklas_Zennström Niklas Zennstrøm] and [http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Janus_Friis Janus Friis]—KaZaa, Skype. Peer-to-peer. Community. Promising. I wish them a lot of succes!

TextBender—Web 3.0 distributed Wiki-like text writing

Interesting new way of distributed collaboration…

TextBender is a system of collaborative writing based on recombinant text,
textbender has these characteristics:

*Your text belongs to a population, one text per author.
*Quality bits of text are swapped among authors, peer to peer.
*Individual authorship is retained and traceable throughout.

Textbender is currently ”’aimed at creative writing”’, particularly at short verse. A demonstration is being prepared.

Recombinant text is a medium of collaborative design and composition, with a basis in biological theory. In computer science, it belongs to the subfield of human-based genetic algorithms. In biological terms, it is analogous to population genetic engineering; but with populations that consist of texts.

The texts are Web documents. Intercommunication is by Web protocols, and the result is the collaborative production of Web content. Recombinant text is therefore ”’comparable to a Wiki”’. But it differs in its distributed architecture and ”’peer-to-peer communication pattern”’ (populations), ”’formalized data units”’ (genes), and ”’semantic labels”’ (loci). These place it in the arena of Web 3.0.

Several design approaches to recombinant text have been investigated to date. The ultimate approach (below top) would rely on a mechanism of gene complexing to transfer variations of plot, character, and other patterns from text to text. This approach would have a range of groupware applications in general design, as well as literary and musical composition. It would also be difficult to realize, and remains a vision for the future.

Reputation: net promoter score (NPS)

Yet another reputation system—a Net Promoter Score (NPS) is the result of a customer satisfaction survey in which customers are asked only one so-called “Ultimate” question:

:”’How likely are you to recommend Company or Product X to a friend or colleague?”’

Does this work for communities and personal reputation as well?

Can ‘Spiritual Computing’ Drive Web 3.0?

Computer scientists and visionaries today see a future in which Web 3.0 will help us engage in virtual battles with cancer cells, keep us physically independent as we age, and achieve a deeper emotional connection to things that matter most to us.

Dana Pavel believes that technology can make a profound difference in our lives if computers can understand more about where we are and how we are feeling.

“At some point you want to do something more than accomplish tasks through technologies and devices,” said the researcher who studies affective and context-aware computing at Nokia’s Helsinki Research Center.

Seems like Nokia is working hard on this. Again, resonates with [http://wiki.aardrock.com/Slimme_Spirituele_Software Martien’s Smart Spiritual Software].
