Personal Life Recorders and Digital
Lifestyle Aggregators
Personal Life Recorders and Digital
Lifestyle Aggregators
09/13/2004 09:19 AMNick Graydos brings up a good point.
Once we have Personal Life Recorders (PLRs) - we'll need digital lifestyle aggregators (DLAs) to organize all
the crap we collect.
Perhaps the biggest barriers to humans utilizing all the technology
we offer them - is how to get all this stuff digitzed, uploaded, meta
data attached and indexed - before we can utilize it.
PLRs
solve that problem.
But we'll need ways of organizing, keeping track of and backing up
all our stuff - especially as we move from home to work and school and
bop around the world - as well. This all goes along well with the
last post I did on dealing with your digital lifestyle -
currently.
There are other things that require DLAs as well.
Activity based computing for one. Is it a coicidence that Don Norman influenced me on that one as
well?
Clay Shirky calls it Situated
software, but I see a more general era of technology - where the
human no longer has to bend over to adapt to the weird rules and
eccentricities of the software - to use it.
This assumes that the usability issue
is finally understood, that soci
al interfaces are predominant and that DLAs help us pull it all
together.
The PLRs and activity based computing will take us to the next
level.
Here's Nick's post which inspired this outburst.....
USA Today ran an article on MRAM (magentic ram) and its impact PLRs - personal life
recorders.
"Don
Norman speculated about a
Personal
Life Recorder (PLR) type of device back in his 1992 book
"Turn Signals Are The Facial Expression of Automobiles". He
theorized
that these PLR's would start out as a device given to young
children,
called the "Teddy".
The "Teddy" would be given to us as children and record all of our
personal life moments, and as we mature, the data could be
transferred
to new devices that matched out maturity level." [via Smart Mobs]
The holy grail of devices = Storage Capacity + Battery Life +
Device Speed / Responsiveness + Physical Size.
How do you feel about having your life recorded? I'm ready.
Marc Canter has some related ideas that tie into his themes of Digital Lifestyle Aggregation. I really think that
Personal Lifestyle Recorders will
require Digital Lifestyle Aggregators to sift through all of
the data to find the interesting bits.
"What’s a
Digital Lifestyle Aggregator?
Imagine a next
generation MyYahoo
service – which enabled end-users to keep track of their personal
(and
their families) music, photo, video and file collections and provided
them with ‘home publishing’ capabilities to create, store and
distribute their own content. Imagine a social
networking environment which matched and found like-minded people and
enabled them to participate in activities together (both on-line and
in
‘real space’.)...
...Now
imagine all of these capabilities and features in one integrated
environment – focused in on a particular constituency, content brand
or
set of activities. That’s what we call a digital lifestyle
aggregator (DLA.)"

12/19/2004 03:25 PMThe Search Is On For Digital Video
http://news.com.com/Striking+up+digital+video+search/21
00-1032_3-5466491.html
Google, Microsoft and Yahoo
all are quietly developing new search technology for ferreting out
snippets of digital video from the vast archives of television
programming. "Google's trying to bring TV to the Web the same way
they're bringing books to the Web," says one media executive. And
while Google's effort is perhaps the most ambitious, Microsoft has its
sights set on the interactive TV market for cable providers and Yahoo
is planning to debut a multimedia search engine and is working with
Web entertainment and news aggregators to index video clips already
online. The Internet's evolution into a viable entertainment platform
will open up vast new video libraries that will require new search
technology to organize and make content relevant to viewers, just as
search engines have done for the billions of pages on the Web. The
task is daunting -- while users can generally discern very quickly if
a Web search result is what they're looking for, each video clip could
take from 15 seconds to several minutes to peruse. To tackle the
problem, Google is recording live TV shows and indexing the related
closed-caption text of the programming. It uses the text to identify
themes, concepts and relevant keywords to use for later searching.
Each result will appear in a thumbnail picture accompanied by some
captioning text. "The business models are too soon to tell, but
everyone is interested," says one person close to the deal. "First,
the meetings are about, 'Don't sue us for nicking your closed
captioning,' and then it's the commercial possibilities."

10/29/2003 01:15 AMI need some recommendations for a digital video camera. My
requisites are few: It needs to be fairly inexpensive (under $500),
use FireWire for transfer and have a track record for working well
with Macs.
It need not be a spectacular camera, but one of the best I can get
for my price range.

"The purpose of the Open Video Project is to collect
and make available a repository of digitized video content for the
digital video, multimedia retrieval, digital library, and other
research communities. Researchers can use the video to study a wide
range of problems, such as tests of algorithms for automatic
segmentation, summarization, and
creation of surrogates that
describe video content; the development of face recognition
algorithms; or creating and evaluating interfaces that display result
sets from multimedia queries. Because researchers attempting to solve
similar problems will have access to the same video content, the
repository is also intended to be used as a test collection that will
enable systems to be compared, similar to the way the TREC conferences
are used for text retrieval." The project has demonstrated the
efficacy of many technical processes for organizing, searching, and
scaling video DLs. This has been added to
