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

In an example of the new economy taking a page from the old,
MSNBC.com adopted a longtime newspaper strategy yesterday, starting an
online classifieds site. The service, part of the broader joint
venture between Microsoft Corp. and NBC News, lets users search for
employment, real estate, personals, merchandise, and other types of
listings from sites including eBay, cars.com, HomeGain. com and
Match.com. Sort of a classified ad portal is what it looks like. I

Piers sez, "I noticed this just near where I live, someone's lined the
floor of a phonebox outside a supermarket with roll-on turf. I have no
idea who did it. It looks really awesome, and feels nicer than bare
concrete as well. Probably only going to last a couple of days, but I
really like this kind of anonymous, socially-focused art. It has a
very honest quality to it. It's in Mount Lawley, Perth, Australia, at
the Supa Valu near the corner of Beaufort and Walcott, if anyone wants
to have a look."

Your friend: the FBI
Your friend: the FBI
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.]
