for papers, come for the party or just come and hang out.
You can't be a decent standard if you don't have a
conference.



Topics
The FOAF (Friend of a Friend) project explores a unique combination
of themes from social networking, search engines, knowledge
representation and software development. FOAF was designed as a
practical experiment that would highlight the technical, social and
business challenges raised by the next generation of "Semantic" Web
technology. Over the past few years, the FOAF developer community has
been working on standards-based techniques for publishing and
harvesting machine-readable descriptions of people, the links between
them, and the things they create and do. The working assumption of the
project is that such techniques will underpin the deployment of the
next generation of Web technology, W3C's "Semantic Web". The FOAF
project was created in the expectation that these machine-readable
descriptions will grow, as the Semantic Web platform matures, to cover
companies, organisations, documents, groups, products, file sharing
and many other aspects of life, both online and off. The time has come
to evaluate these assumptions in the context of the opportunities and
challenges presented by the rise of FOAF and the Semantic Web.
Social networking is a recent topic gaining much interest and
publicity. Social networking sites are community sites where users can
maintain an online network of friends or associates for social or
business purposes: whether looking for a job, reconnecting with old
friends, moving to a new area, or dating. Most of these sites are
based on a centralised architecture: all users' descriptions are
stored in one big database. There is, however, growing user and
business interest in portability between such sites, and for
sophisticated "single sign-on" mechanisms that reduce the need for
data re-entry, while allowing users to manifest different aspects of
themselves in different contexts. FOAF-based import/export allows such
sites to address user demand for control of "their" data; however,
many deployment, privacy, authentication and engineering issues have
not yet been fully explored. To what extent do mechanisms such as FOAF
change the environment they attempt to describe? How can the
visibility of personal data be restricted to certain audiences? How
can businesses make money when their customers can migrate to new
services with increased ease?
This workshop on FOAF, social networking and the Semantic Web
provides a first chance to discuss the unusual combination of
perspectives - academic and scientific, engineering, social, legal and
business - drawn together by these trends. The workshop aims to bring
together for the first time researchers interested in the effects,
analysis and application of social networks on the (Semantic) Web as
well as practitioners building applications and infrastructure. The
workshop will also try to give a snapshot of current developments, as
well as setting a roadmap for the future of both FOAF and social
networking - especially in the context of the Semantic Web.
Topics of interest for full papers include, but are not limited to
the following:
* Social network metadata standards
* Trust issues in social networks
* Profiles of FOAF, subsets, mapping to other vocabularies and
formats
* Federated digital identity, single sign-on (decentralized
identity management)
* Business models for the Semantic Web (life after banner
advertisements)
* Integration with desktop and mobile applications (chat, IM, P2P,
Bluetooth, address books, RSS/Atom)
* Privacy, etiquette and best practice issues for aggregators
* Infrastructure for social networking
* Applications of online social networking
* Knowledge management with social networks
* Mathematical analysis of social networks
* Exchange of social network information
* Applications of online social networks
* Shared annotations
* Use of digital signatures and encryption with RDF/XML
* RDF-based search engines, data harvesting and syndication
* GUIs (browsers, editors) for FOAF and Semantic Web data
* Formalisms that address practical problems of heterogenous
changing data
* Pragmatics of sharing data schemas across subtly different
datasets

06/10/2004 11:38 AM
The
Bluetooth SIG, the group that controls the standards that define the
short-range radio networking technology has announced a proposal for a
new version of Bluetooth that offers data rates almost 3 times as fast
as the previous version. Called Bluetooth EDR (for Enhanced Data
Rate), the new specification claims data rates of up to 2.1Mbps and
remains backward-compatible with the original Bluetooth spec. No word,
however, if the enhanced data rate will causes a proportionate
decrease in range, not unlike 802.11g compares to 802.11b.

“Those of you who read this site
via RSS/Atom/LiveJournal syndication may have missed our latest site
feature, ‘IM to a friend’.
As of this last
Friday, there's a tiny AIM icon next to the title of each entry. When
it's clicked on, most AIM clients should give you a new message window
containing the URL of the entry you'd like to share with a friend.
After you enter their screen name and send the message, feel free to
chat about what you've sent their way. It works transparently and is
loads easier than a standard copy and paste.
Yeah, we're
trying to harbor conversation about our site and drive our traffic up.
We're also trying to make sending URLs to friends a bit easier. We
stole the idea from our friends at blogging.la
.
Note: Trillian
doesn't seem to install handlers for ‘aim:‘ links. If you
run Trillian and click on the link, there's a good chance that nothing
will happen. iChat and the official AIM client seem to be all good
tho. Sorry Trillian users.” [Preshrunk]

sting idea for those libraries exploring IM. Might be a nice reverse
idea on the idea of creating IM interfaces into the catalog, too.

04/15/2004 11:36 AMThoughts for Tax Day: A friend sent t
his article on various rules that restrict the U.S. government
from investigating terrorists. The implication of the article is
that we'd all be better off if the CIA and the FBI could work
unfettered. Certainly the widows and orphans of September 11th
would be better off. Yet our government has a history of pouring
tremendous amounts of effort in the wrong areas, often resulting in
months or years of misery for innocent people. One of the more
humorous recent examples is Booker Prize winner Ian McEwan's detain
ment at the Vancouver airport. We want the Federales to be
strong enough to hunt down Saudi terrorists in flight schools but
sufficiently weak that we can throw them off our own backs when
necessary.
[As noted on Prairie Home Companion on Saturday, if you're sending
a check to the IRS this year put a couple of extra stamps on the
envelope because it's going all the way to Iraq.]
