(Feel me?) There is more I’d like to address here, but when a person tells me that they were interested in my promised post, and eagerly headed to here over yesterday’s morning coffee, quivering with anticipation, only to be disappointed by my lack of an update, I begin to feel a bit bad. I had an excellent discussion last night regarding some of the thoughts, concerns, and questions posted by our commentators, and some surrounding issues and ideas. At least, it was excellent from what I can remember. But then, possibly, I might think that of every conversation I have at Riddles amongst my people on my third generous glass of (surprisingly wonderful for a novelty wine) Earth, Zin, and Fire and my 14th Dunhill Light which involves correlating the current human behavioral attitudes toward emergent technology to the ex-patriot artistic culture at various moments throughout history. (At least, I think that was one of my points?) I also recall some sort of genius comparison by my companion of the popular writing being done in the media regarding the state of things on the web and the future of communication to the perception that we’ve been told “The novel is dead!” almost since the invention of the printing press. However, the random blue grass band was a little too loud for any of it to stick in my mind terribly clearly. Also, a surreal cowboy in a flannel vest kept drawing our attention and pulling me off topic. I do remember laughing until I cried about something related to this topic though, and that’s a good sign. Never a good idea to take life too seriously. Basically though, there are three main take-aways from the conversation for me, that I can pull out of the haze that was Red Zinfindel, anyways. These are in the form of some intelligent questions I was asked and attempted to answer. I’m going to list all three, but only one actually belongs in this post, so I’ll get to the other two later. 1) “What exactly are you TALKING about when you say you’d like to help businesses talk advantage of free and low cost web 2.0 applications and open source software? Speak English. I don’t even know what that means.” 2) “Why do people write open source software anyway? I don’t get it. What’s the motivation?” 3) “Everyone is has been spouting off about a shift in the communication paradigm, the isolationist repercussions of the Interenet, print is dead!, traditional media is dead!, but blogs are self-important drivel! it’s over, it’s beginning, etc etc for the past ten years. This is becoming frustrating. We get it already. So what are we supposed to be doing next? Why is everyone saying “the past is over” yet not telling us what the future should look like?” This third question is a great one. Unfortunately, I believe last night that I got a little lost and drifted into some meaningless conversation involving the sometime paralysis of academia, the insecurities of the common man, Hemingway, and Walt Whitman, then finished it all off by confusing the guy from long island who came up with a theory of time with a guy who worked on string theory. I blame the Zin entirely. Today, being fully caffeinated, I’m merely going to address that question with this tidbit, which is fairly old news by web standards, but I’m just getting caught up. I think the fact that an initiative is occurring to formalize a new scientific discipline called Web Science really speaks to the underlying question here. Richard MacManus, an independent web analyst and the author of Read/Write Web discusses here a conference call by MIT and the University of Southampton in Britain, announcing the initiative. The project is being led by Tim Berners-Lee, director of the World Wide Web Consortium. ”According to Tim, Web Science is about &#8220;building a new Web, a better Web, building things on top of the Web infrastructure&#8221; - making the Web infrastructure a space where things can happen and making that space more powerful.” This article in the New York Times states that, “The Web science program is an academic effort, but corporate technology executives and computer scientists said the research could greatly influence Web-based businesses.” It also mentions a related discipline of particular interest to me, services science. ”Web science is related to another emerging interdisciplinary field called services science. This is the study of how to use computing, collaborative networks and knowledge in disciplines ranging from economics to anthropology to lift productivity and develop new products in the services sector, which represents about three-fourths of the United States economy. Services science research is being supported by technology companies like I.B.M., Accenture and Hewlett-Packard, and by the National Science Foundation.” Essentially, studying web systems is now becoming an official discipline. In my opinion, this is huge step towards addressing the “when is someone going to do something instead of merely telling us about it for the one millionth time?” question that I think I&#8221;m hearing.

The idea is that the mobile web will become the dominant access method in many countries of the world, with devices that become more hybrid and networks that become more powerful - everywhere in the next decade to come. did i just enter a time machine? take out mobile 2.0 and replace it with wap and you could think you are back in 2000 or 2001 at some mobile conference with carriers looking jealously at the internet and trying to replicate it for the mobile space. and replicate they did. the typical argument is made that technological advancements will change everything The rapid penetration of Wireless Broadband Access (WBA) technologies such as 3G/UMTS, the migration of traditional telecom networks to internet technology, the availability of affordable and functional Wi-Fi and dual mode Wi-Fi/mobile phones&#8230; will all boost VoIP over broadband internet and ultimately blur the distinction between fixed and mobile services, since both become wireless and IP based. despite the fact that most users still use a technology that i used in the mid &#8217;90s and which is called SMS. the arguments is made that new handsets and the pressure of companies like apple will push mobile 2.0 If you have had the opportunity to experience the latest Nokia NSeries phones, you have gotten close to understanding what mobile 2.0 is all about. It&#8217;s about connecting your phone through Wi-Fi networks to browse the latest innovative, mobile accessible web 2.0 services. For example downloading your favourite podcasts, reading your RSS feeds, doing a one-click image upload to Flickr (nicely tagged with ShoZu), consulting the location map while on the road, tagging your streamed video&#8217;s, etc. the main defining criteria of mobile 2.0 are then articulated in the end Openness: open standards, open-source development&#8230;Affordable pricing&#8230;More user choice&#8230;Intelligent &#8216;aware&#8217; applications and devices&#8230;New business opportunities coming to market, which may or may not connect to operators networks; think RSS feeds, alerts to SMS, Bluetooth and Wi-Fi Entertainment download zones and access spots,&#8230; ultimately this list is nothing more than taking o&#8217;reilly&#8217;s web 2.0 description, and adding a couple of about 5 years old mobile service descriptors and bang you have mobile 2.0. my main problem with this is that we are talking about mobile 2.0 without actually having had a mobile 1.0. let&#8217;s be honest there is no mobile web. people are using SMS and they are using their phones to check emails. and saying that location aware apps will be the difference between mobile 1.0 and 2.0 doesn&#8217;t work because location has always been the mobile&#8217;s holly grail to differentiate the mobile web from the pc based web (as has been the fact that mobile phones are cheaper, always with a user&#8230;). for there to be a mobile 1.0 and then a mobile 2.0 carriers will have to accept that they are just an infrastructure provider. services will have to be free and not limited to walled gardens. this is not about handsets and wifi, bluetooth, or 3G, this is about creating services that address the needs of mobile users (i think i wrote this before, oh that was in 2001). and so far the best service addressing this (beyond SMS and email) is the sms based google service. there is certainly a lot that the mobile web can learn from web 2.0 (like the open APIs, like tagging, like the adoption of widgets), but to compare the two just doesn&#8217;t work. the web is clearly on its way to a stable 3.0 release, while the mobile web has not yet gotten out of its initial beta release.

BlueMenu lets you quickly find more music by the same artist or pictures of the movie star or current deals to a travel destination or more wines with the same winery. BlueMenu is also really cool for blogs, because it lets you do research, find more information on the topic, similar blogs and information about the blogger. In this post, we&#8217;ll show you how to do that. Blog BlueMenu basics To get the blog BlueMenu, navigate to a blog and right-click anywhere on the page. In the example above we are using Read/WriteWeb - popular analysis blog published by Richard MacManus. Note that you only get the blog menu if you are on the front page of a blog. The post pages will contain regular BlueMenu. Lets look at the basic actions. You can find links to this blog on popular generic and blog search engines. For example, select [This page -> Blogs] on google.com to see all the links to this page on Blogsearch.google.com: If you are a blogger, you will find this function particularly handy as you can instantly find links to your web site on Google, Technorati, Sphere, Newsvine and many other sites. There are also slight variations of the search above that you can use. For example, you can search for the title of the blog using title menu. In this case its [Read/WriteWeb] and here is the search one Newsvine: Searching for Blog Author Blogs have people behind them and so BlueOrganizer helps you find out more information about the blogger. In addition to the traditional Google and news searches you can lookup blogger&#8217;s information on sites like ZoomInfo, LinkedIn and Facebook. Here is for example how to find more about Richard on LinkedIn: And if you&#8217;d like to know what this blogger looks like search Flickr or Google: Power tools in the I&#8217;d like to menu All the things above are basic search functions built into the BlueMenu. You can do more with the I&#8217;d like to menu. For blogs it backs a set of handy things like subscription, finding similar blogs, digging it and storing on del.icio.us. You can configure the BlueMenu to use your favorite news reader. In this case it is Netvibes. So you can subscribe to this blog with 1 click. You can also quickly send it to del.icio.us or any other social bookmarking site of your choice. And if you like this blog, you can find similar blogs. Try similicious this little site is very good at finding similar blogs. Here is what it recommends for Read/WriteWeb: Customizing Blog menu If you want to add/remove sites to the BlueMenu for blogs you can easily do this by selecting the [Configure Blog menu] option under I&#8217;d like to menu. Choose the sites that you like manually or use the [Personalize] button to re-configure your entire BlueMenu based on your browsing history (how cool is that?!). Give this all a try and drop us a note. With that - happy blog surfing! Alex Why Is Everyone Suprised About Facebook Traffic Dip?

Hundreds of mashups and APIs. Elastic Compute Cloud from Amazon It is not primarily about APIs and mashups, but Amazon has once again upped the web-as-platform ante, this time with yesterday&#8217;s announcement of EC2: Elastic Compute Cloud. What is it? A form of on-demand utility computing that enables fast, cost-effective provisioning of services via virtual server instances you setup on Amazon&#8217;s infrastructure. This provides scalability that can be activated in minutes. Some quick details: Each instance provides a predictable equivalent of: 1.7Ghz Xeon CPU, 1.75GB of RAM, 160GB of local disk, and 250Mb/s of network bandwidth. Designed to work with the Amazon S3 storage service. It i&#8217;s a pay-as-you-go pricing model: $0.10 per instance-hour consumed (or part of an hour consumed). $0.20 per GB of data transferred outside of Amazon (i.e., Internet traffic). $0.15 per GB-Month of Amazon S3 storage used for your images (charged by Amazon S3). The ProgrammableWeb API database now has an Amazon EC2 entry. For more on the EC2 announcement see also the Amazon Web Services blog, Phil Wainewright who compares it to Sun&#8217;s flawed utility vision, Dan Farber&#8217;s ZDNet Report, this quick screencast from Jon Udell, and TechCrunch. Speaking of Amazon being ahead of the curve: Alex Iskold recently wrote about Amazon&#8217;s strategy in this Web 2.0 Journal report as well as in his Web Platform primer at Richard MacManus&#8217; Read/Write Web. More on the Mashup Economy Recommended reading this week comes from Redmonk analyst Anne Zelenka in a piece for GigaOM that gives a very good overview on Making Money in the Mashup Economy. This is part of her Mashup Camp 3 coverage &#8212; earlier reports are here. A few business models covered include: Elastic Computing: The primary exemplars here being Amazon&#8217;s S3 API and EC2 API with their pay-as-you-go virtualized infrastructure services. &#8220;Mashup developers could always buy and administer their own hardware, but the philosophy of mashups is based on putting together apps out of pieces other people provide. Elastic computing services make storage and processing.&#8221; Along these lines, Read/WriteWeb recently covered some Amazon success stories. Certainly storage in the cloud is likely to become a common API service with another good example coming from the Box.net API. Aggregated Data Access: Traditional high-value data providers like Dunn & Bradstreet and Bloomberg making their data available via feeds and APIs (some are listed here as with the D&B Credit Check offered via API aggregator and service provider StrikeIron, a company also mentioned in the piece). Also mentioned in this category is none other than ProgrammableWeb, the &#8220;the favorite community website of mashup developers&#8221;. Mashup Development Tools: Along the lines of the companies and tools we covered here last week Anne notes one her favorite demos came from ProgrammableWeb sponsor OpenKapow for turning any website into an RSS feed, component or API, which is a free service but highlights their commercial enterprise-grade tools. Also in her roundup are IBM&#8217;s QEDwiki, Proto, Coghead, Ning and DabbleDB. The Mashups Themselves: Here the best-known models are advertising and affiliate revenue. In some of our research here using a sampling from our database of about 1500 mashups the most common monetization model was without question Google AdSense. For more coverage of the business side of APIs and mashups see our 30+ past entries on &#8220;money&#8221; here.

GigaOM - While not solely focused on Web 2.0, GigaOM is ranked one of the top 100 blogs by Technorati and CNET, with a monthly audience in excess of 500,000. PostBubble - This blog &#8220;asks industry experts about what they believe will succeed or crash and give it to you&#8221; &#8212; meaning each review comes with a success or failure bet. eHub - Designer Emily Chang runs Ideacodes and keeps up eHub with brief listings of new sites, occasional details in her blog, and quick interviews with the brains behind the start-ups. rev2.org - This site covers everyday topics around Web 2.0, written by Sid Yadav of Queenstown, New Zealand. Mashable - Pete Cashmore&#8217;s blog covers social sites and Web 2.0 startups. Dion Hinchcliffe - Dion runs Hinchcliffe & Company in nearby Alexandria, VA.  His blog generally focuses on the impact Web 2.0 will have on enterprise applications, but with this post Dion predicts the next round of &#8220;Breakout&#8221; Web 2.0 Sites. Read/WriteWeb - Here blogger Richard MacManus gives us &#8220;information on innovative Web apps and services, together with product positioning, Web news and industry insights.&#8221; /Message - Stowe Boyd, another local, is known to be an authority on social media, and his blog covers Web 2.0 accordingly. SolutionWatch - Brian Benzinger provides well-written, in-depth reviews of emerging sites. Update - James Yu of BuzzShout (mentioned below) points out the ShoutBlog, where he provides more detailed info about the sites being submitted to BuzzShout. Many of these blogs are part of the Web 2.0 Workgroup, a network of blogs focused on Web 2.0.  While its not a blog, last week Seth Godin and Alexaholic put together this list of 937 Web 2.0 companies sorted by their Alexa traffic rank at the Web 2.0 Traffic Watch List.  The list is based on the All Things Web 2.0 directory. Both Web 2.0 List and BuzzShout let the users list, rate, and review sites.  These are all great resources for following the hundreds of new companies in this space.  If it&#8217;s really just those glossy, pastel logos you care about, skip right to web2logo.com or create one yourself. While we&#8217;re on the topic, Web 2.0 events and conferences are popping up all over the place.  Two notable ones are: O&#8217;Reilly&#8217;s Web 2.0 Conference - Nov. 7-9, San Francisco, CA - Now in its 3rd year, this is the major conference following Web 2.0. The New New Internet - Web 2.0 for Business - Sept. 20, McLean, VA - ExecutiveBiz (which I help to run) is organizing this one-day East Coast event which will focus on the impact Web 2.0 is having on business.  Both Dion and Mike Arrington will be speaking, and many emerging companies will demo their wares in the Technology Showcase.  Use the promo code &#8220;vigetdeal&#8221; and get $50 off your registration. With all the activity around new site launches, following Web 2.0 is increasingly time-consuming.  As new blogs jump on our radar, we&#8217;ll no doubt update our feeds and post an updated list &#8212; let me know if you have any suggestions &#8230; Small BASIC: A simple programming introduction Way back in April Bill Thompson posed the question "Who will write tomorrow&#39;s code?" As an appalling programmer it is a topic I am very interested in, and was therefore intrigued by Microsoft&#39;s Small BASIC (via ReadWriteWeb): A ... Web 2.0 and the necessity of failure There are new web applications and services being launched every day around the world. Most of these products expect an audience (a real one) to sustain themselves and stay afloat - but the problem with Web 2.0, is that it&#8217;s probably a little ahead of time, as the rest of the world doesn&#8217;t &#8220;get it&#8221; yet. Blogs like Mike&#8217;s Techcrunch or Richard&#8217;s Readwrite/Web report on the latest products and trends, but isn&#8217;t their audience restricted in itself? Are web application developers expecting a number of users that just doesn&#8217;t exist? Read on. On failure and natural selection Web 2.0 has made it extremely easy to launch products. It isn&#8217;t hard to bootstrap development costs, so people with ideas pursue their ambitions of getting them out there. This is creating an atmosphere of innovation dilution (you&#8217;ve read it here first) where key forward-thinking ideas don&#8217;t get the attention they need (or deserve) amidst all others. The question of whether this is a bubble has been asked many times before, and I keep thinking and saying we&#8217;re not a bubble in the financial sense, but definitely are in one on the wow sense. And the theory is when the bubble bursts and the novelty fades, many of the products launching now will fade away with it. Now, even though I love web applications and love it when people decide to pursue their intentions of launching new ones, I believe we do need more failure happening in order to learn with the experience and truly innovate. Clarifications Despite the fact that we may indeed need failure to learn with our mistakes and create the path for a new wave of innovation, we still need new products. We still need people to try their best, and make compelling solutions to everyday problems. I guess what I mean by all of this is that we should all keep innovating, but we (as in, the mass of people doing new things with the web) shouldn&#8217;t be afraid to call something a failure and move on. And we do need to create new things and avoid the me-too&#8217;s we&#8217;ve been seeing lately. Lets fail more in order to learn faster and create more and better web applications.

Australian Internet Startups Wiki Via a post entitled 42 Cool Australian Internet Startups on the Rave About it blog I found out about a terrific Australian initiative being undertaken by Jon Yau at Australianblogs.com.au. Building on a post by Vishal Sharma (later reproduced and edited by Richard McManus at Read/Write Web), Jon has created an Australian wiki page and writes &#8220;AustralianWiki.com.au is the wiki of the AustralianBlogs group of websites. An Australian-centric wiki, it is hoped that it can be another platform for local collaboration and interaction.&#8220; The purpose of the wiki, which is showcasing Australian Internet Startups, is to give local startups the opportunity to introduce their product or service, and a bit about the people behind them. Jon writes &#8220;I was just keen to continue the thread by providing a wiki to act as a ‘rolling’ register of local web startups&#8230;&#8230;what I had in mind was that by creating this wiki page eventually some journo would stumble onto it and pick up the scent&#8220;.

Relevance ReadWriteWeb asks Is there a need for local services for non-language reasons? Of course there is. Cultural relevance is a key element of communication, and all markets are conversations. Cultural differences in English speaking countries are many and varied. Currencies, media, laws and regulations, political structure, education, religion, cuisine, art, customs, sport,  humour, technology, agriculture, climate, resources and military relations are all factors in local culture. If you restrict the list of English speaking countries to only those with English as an official or first language, you've got countries such as Australia, Canada, New Zealand, USA, UK and the Cayman Islands. Aside from English, these countries do not have that much in common, they all have their own slang and colloquialisms. Australian cultural references such as the Skyhooks and the tall poppy syndrome will be lost on many people overseas, while cultural stereotypes like BBQ shrimp, Foster's beer and Crocodile Dundee are more well known. We're a melting pot, believe in the underdog and have a sense of humour many other cultures do not understand. Even the Aussie BBQ has a different style to the American BBQ. Canada is bilingual, Ireland has more history than you can shake a stick at, England has a national anthem about their Queen, the USA has the right to bear arms, New Zealand has the haka and the Cayman Islands is famous as a tax haven. Richard McManus says Remember that one of the cardinal rules of web design is that you must understand what the user wants.  That may be true, but the first rule of Business 2.0 is knowing who your customer is. While more than one have missed the point, services like gnoos are valuable because they know who their locals are, they know what being local is, not because they hire someone to teach them how to be like a local, they actually are local. For local consumers who see ads with people wearing the wrong clothes and speaking with the wrong accent, it's just not cricket. If you want to speak to a local market and have them listen, or build a community, you'd better learn more than the lingo mate. 10 More Future Web Trends 一寸先を読む　　--Online Office の時代へ-- â– [Amazon]　　 Amazon は次世代 Web プラットフォームの提案者 　 [ネット]どうやらYouTubeでもテキストの注釈を付けられるようになるみたい？ [Movie] ケヴィン・ケリーがドキュメンタリー映画本を広告付きPDF ...

Top 10 Web Platforms of 2008 2008 has seen a proliferation of new Web platforms, including a few major ones built using open standards. In this final instalment of our series of top products of 2008, we choose the top 10 Web platforms of the year. Introducing Hype 2.0: a Quick Way to find Web 2.0 Applications Over the past few months I found myself wanting to search for &#8220;web 2.0&#8243; versions of many different websites just because most of the time I find that 2.0 sites are more intuitive, simpler, have useful features, and are a lot more fun to use. However there is not a &#8220;Web 2.0 search&#8221; that I&#8217;m aware of, so I decided to roll one myself using Google Co-op. Introducing &#8230; (drum roll please) &#8230; Hype 2.0 Web 2.0 Search - Google Custom Search Now you can search for websites and online applications just by typing in a service, product, or function that you are searching for: for example &#8220;medical advice&#8221;, &#8220;conference calling&#8221;, &#8220;bookmark recipes&#8221;, &#8220;remote data backup&#8221;, or any other web service. Since Google has such an old-website bias in its normal search, this search only returns pages from the most popular blogs that review &#8220;web 2.0&#8243; websites and startups. Feel free to add this search to your own website AND/OR to your browser&#8217;s custom search engines list. I&#8217;ve tested a number of keyword combinations and it does a pretty good job of finding what I need. It&#8217;s a work in progress and I&#8217;m sure I&#8217;ll be refining it as I go so please give me some feedback and let me know what you think - your opinion is really appreciated. The search is somewhere between an alpha and a beta. Help me take it Gamma or a Rho ;) The starting list of websites searched: Techcrunch Read Write Web Somewhat Frank Mashable Solution Watch Rev2 Center Networks GigaOm Startups I also added some filters to make sure only the relevant stuff comes up. Thanks to Todd (Stuntdubl) for the inspiration and Neil Patel for suggesting more sites. Go test drive Hype 2.0 and let me know what you think! Part II - WTF is a Widget? In our last episode, I promised to start brain storming on the definition of Widget. Good to my sequel promise, in this post I will try to dive into the depths of Widget philosophy. Ironically, this question came up several times this week, so it is a good time to start thinking about a decent answer! With further adieu on with our show... According to the kind folks contributing to Wikipedia: A widget (or control) is an interface component that a computer user interacts with, such as a window or a text box. Widgets are sometimes qualified as virtual to distinguish them from their physical counterparts, e.g. virtual buttons that can be clicked with a mouse cursor, vs. physical buttons that can be pressed with a finger. Widgets are often packaged together in widget toolkits. Programmers use widgets to build graphical user interfaces (GUIs).That is a pretty decent start, but is still a bit too high level for me. Given the fact that it is a bit tough to define generically, I am going to take a slightly different cut at this. Specifically, let's start by taking a stab at a more specific term - Web Widget. According to the all knowing Hoo-pedia the definition is as follows: A Web Widget is a portable software application, or module, that can be installed and executed within one, or more separate browser-based application platforms by an End User without requiring additional compilation. Whew. Does that make sense? That basically covers all the bling you can place on MySpace, as well as the more utilitarian services that you can use across MySpace and blogging platforms like Typepad, etc. That is my two-cents. I wonder what Pete Cashmore, Richard MacManus, Dion Hinchcliffe and other Web 2.0 thought leaders think. Maybe I will ask... More on this to come. Tune in next time for more fantastic fun with your friendly neighborhood Hoo-man. Yee-haw! Technorati Tags: web widget, widget, web2.0, myspace RSS Readers lack innovation WageRank has a basic feature request for RSS Readers: feed recommendation. In a post from earlier today, cdc compares the request to Amazon&#8217;s recommendation engine. I can’t believe it’s 2007 and we don’t have a similar service that recommends blogs based on the blogs you currently subscribe to. iTunes is another successful example of an intelligent recommendation engine based on a simple query of user purchase history. There&#8217;s an important difference between Feed Readers and Amazon or iTunes, though. Discovery translates into revenue for the latter two - recommendations encourage additional purchases. But nobody wants to pay to use a Reader. Story Nearly a year ago, we had a similar conversation regarding another basic feature request: filtering. We built Feed Rinse as an outside service that could be easily added to any reader. But even with thousands of users, the service didn&#8217;t drive strong revenue (paid accounts were a few dollars per month.) We even worked with Richard MacManus for a brief time to develop an enterprise strategy and then decided to drop the fees for individual use. Somewhere in that time frame Google Reader launched. And then Microsoft announced that Outlook 07 would support RSS. Google and Yahoo! also announced they was planning important integrations into Gmail and My Yahoo! / Yahoo! Mail respectively. MacManus even wrote that the consumer RSS Reader was a dead market. Back to the question So, why don&#8217;t Readers offer feed recommendations? Well, some do (Rojo for instance,) and at least one did (Pluck&#8217;s RSS Reader has since shut down.) But at least part of the reason they don&#8217;t all is a lack of paid demand. The Internet [community] expects content to be free, all the way from creation to delivery. And that depresses innovation in the RSS Reader category. There are those who would argue this same expectation also encourages innovation, but so can a kick in the teeth. Feed discovery doesn&#8217;t have to occur inside the Reader. There are plenty of other options. And some of these could provide better solutions than checking the [opml] reading lists of others with similar subscriptions (more on this later.) But feed recommendations should be a standard option for Readers. I&#8217;d be surprised if Google didn&#8217;t offer this in the coming months. They&#8217;ve recently released personal usage analytics and sharing options that are similar in nature. And Google isn&#8217;t driven by profit in each vertical they attack. Their advertising revenue subsidizes plenty of exploration. Where does that leave us in the meantime? Same place, complaining about the lack of basic features. But regardless of how lucrative the RSS / Atom / XML / Feed category is, we&#8217;re going to see a lot of movement this year.

On a daily basis, I read other blogs and websites and comment when I think I can add some voice to the conversation. I don&#8217;t do it thinking that it&#8217;s going to help my blog; rather, I do it to correct information I think is wrong, encourage folks who I think are doing a great job, and add supporting material to arguments that others make. I&#8217;ve spoken about the dramatic growth I&#8217;ve had it my blog but tonight I did some analysis&#8230; how much has my commenting and inclusion in other conversations resulted in my blog being visited? How many visits have I attained through networking like this? 26.13% of visits to my site are through connections I&#8217;ve made through other sites! In addition, the number of page views of those visits is 1.86 pages versus 1.61 page views of those that find my site through search and other means. Wow! I hate to throw out the term flippantly, but this is the &#8220;Long Tail&#8221; of commenting, isn&#8217;t it? In other words, the work I am doing to network and connect with other bloggers has resulted in growing my blog&#8217;s impact by over 25%. So, content is key&#8230; but it&#8217;s not everything! Just so that you trust me on this&#8230; here&#8217;s a list of the sites that have lent traffic to me that I&#8217;ve connected with. I did limit the list to sites that have sent me more than 1 hit&#8230; otherwise, this would take a day to load.

Tim Berners Lee - Scientific Study Of The Social Web From Read/Write Web Article Web science will have both social and engineering dimensions. As the NY Times reported, Search 2.0 Ebrahim Ezzy has a great series over at Read/Write Web on "Search 2.0," or the evolution of traditional search technologies. The post is in two parts: Search 2.0 vs. Traditional Search Part 1, and Part 2. He mentions a number of great new search tools in these articles, including some of my favorites -- Rollyo and ZoomInfo, to name a few. I think his conclusion is right-on: these new tools don't replace the traditional search engine, but they definitely enhance them and present new ways of discovering information. For that reason, a good searcher should be aware of these tools and how they can compliment the traditional search engines. Des moteurs 3ème génération Une analyse sur les moteurs de recherches du futur a été réalisée par read/write web. Elle compare les moteurs « next gen » aux traditionnels que nous utilisons actuellement. Selon lui, les moteurs 2.0 font partie de la troisième génération de moteurs, la première génération étant celle du classement par contenu, la deuxième celle du classement par analyse de liens.Pour lui, les moteurs de troisième génération « are designed to combine the scalability of existing internet search engines with new and improved relevancy models; they bring into the equation user preferences, collaboration, collective intelligence, a rich user experience, and many other specialized capabilities that make information more productive&rdquo;.De nombreuses comparaisons entre les moteurs actuels et ceux type Rollyo, Clusty ou autre Swikis sont réalisées.L&rsquo;articles est en deux partie : la première ici et la seconde là.   Real Mobile News When I mentioned eMarketer earlier, I said their story on social and mobile converging was just about social. So I went back to yesterday&#8217;s eMarketer to get a real story on mobile marketing. Yesterday&#8217;s story was about a new report on mobile marketing best practices by Forrester Research. In addition to best practices, the study looks at mobile advertising penetration. Unsurprisingly, it&#8217;s low: &#8220;only 13% of interactive marketers used text messaging to reach consumers in December 2006&#8243; and only 11% advertised on wireless application protocol websites. So, basically, it&#8217;s the same old, same old for mobile marketing: after being hyped beyond belief for months—years—no follow up. There was one inspiring success story in eMarketer&#8217;s story: Response rates for marketers who do connect are compelling. A Dunkin&#8217; Donuts-sponsored mobile campaign in downtown Boston used SMS mobile coupons for new latte drinks. Consumers got coupons through a geographically targeted WAP campaign on various Boston mobile Web sites. The campaign generated a 4% click-through rate that converted into a 21% increase in store traffic from customers redeeming their coupons. . . . &#8220;Done well, if it&#8217;s relevant and targeted, mobile advertising can help drive down costs to the consumer while helping grow revenues for the mobile operator[,&#8221; said Wayne Irwin of Logica.] Don&#8217;t have the $379 to shell out for Forrester&#8217;s report? Charles Knight, who&#8217;s getting to be a regular contributor over at Read/WriteWeb, expanded his mobile search toolkit today to 85 &#8216;pieces&#8217; (up from 55). Go get crackin&#8217;! Pilgrim Partners: SEO Copywriters - offering well-researched, interesting and informative content for any business Microsoft, Google and healthcare Over the years, many information services companies, notably IBM and SAIC have been actively involved in working with the pharmaceutical industry in trying to develop IT solutions to improve business processes and develop the infrastructure for improved data handling in clinical trials, drug discovery, etc. Of course, much of the hardware that provides the computing resources for in silico drug development also comes from the IBMs and HPs of the world. Many of the services being provided include the development of knowledge management solutions for drug discovery and clinical trials. In recent years some other companies, not historically involved in the healthcare/drug development business, have become actively involved in the field. To an extent this is a natural evolution of a world where knowledge sharing and knowledge mining are driving the development of the information technology industry. And it is for this reason that the future of healthcare information technology may not belong to IBM, but rather to Google, or even Microsoft. Adam Bosworth has been mentioned in these parts before, and based on a recent post on the official Google blog, the company is very serious about providing solutions for healthcare, notably the ability to search all the health-related information that is out there. One of the questions on Adam&#8217;s (and everyone else&#8217;s) mind is quality. Search is fine, but quality search in healthcare is essential. Google wants to organize the world&#8217;s information. With healthcare, they are facing a tough challenge, one with a social ticket attached to it. I am sure no one at Google wants someone to take the wrong medical decision based on incorrect information that they derived from Google. Microsoft has probably been the more overtly aggressive company when it comes to healthcare. The BioIT Alliance, which includes a number of biosoftware/bioinformatics/service companies was a start, with goals ranging from the development of information exchange standards to more ambitious goals in biomarker discovery. A recent article in Bioinform (sub reqd) indicates that Microsoft wants to tread into IBM territory as well, by encouraging developers to adopt the Windows CCS platform to develop healthcare and other scientific applications. It will not be trivial for Windows CCS to find wide adoption in the research space (where Linux rules), but in the healthcare industry and hospital environment, the company might find more takers. However, it is more recent activities from Redmond that make their efforts more interesting, and bring them in direct competition with that old nemesis, Google. Read/WriteWeb reported earlier that Microsoft had acquired Medstory, a vertical search engine for health information. The rise of vertical search and its role in healthcare is a subject for another day, but it is clear that Microsoft wants to be a player in this space, and since Google does not have a formal offering in place, the timing is good (Is it a coincidence that the Bosworth piece followed the Microsoft news?). The article also points out, via Mary Jo Foley, that Microsoft&#8217;s Health Strategy group is developing solutions as part of the Windows Live family. Add this to their acquisition of Azyxxi, a health intelligence vendor and it is quite clear that Microsoft is very serious about the space. This is just the tip of the iceberg. Hopefully one of these days I will complete a long intended post on healthcare startups and the search space in general. Further reading: Semantic web and pharma Biology, search and Udell BioIT needs to reinvent itself Technorati Tags: Microsoft, Google, Healthcare, Search Utility computing, web applications and computational science I forget the source that pointed me to this piece posted at Read/Write Web (all due apologies to the original poster) about 3Tera, a company based in California, that has developed a &#8220;disposable infrastructure&#8221; for on-demand computing.  Specifically, the company&#8217;s product, AppLogic, has been positioned as a grid operating system. I must say that the product description page reads like a laundry list of information technology cliches, but reading between the lines this writer sees a framework that is targeted squarely at the SaaS market, and is positioned to take advantage of commoditized computing and virtualization (I can do cliches too) in a way that seems to make sense. So why does this interest me? Bioinformatics, at least a good chunk of it, is evolving into a service industry. I use the term industry loosely, but strongly believe that tasks like sequence analysis, homology modeling, functional annotation and various database searches are best deployed using a web services model, whether that be freely available services or paid services. Using appropriate APIs, software developers should be able to plug their applications to query such databases for information. For many institutions and organizations, something like AppLogic should help them with high quality deployment. This should especially benefit content providers, and potentially metaservers, that run a number of tools to help researchers annotate sequences or build homology models, etc. I still feel that scientists are not quite taking advantage of some of the more recent developements in the information technology industry and hopefully applications like AppLogic will lower the barrier to entry for scientific developers. As David Berlind said recently, and Read/Write Web notes, for most cases in the not too distant future computing will be outsourced by all but the biggest companies. With virtualization and deployment frameworks designed to make product deployment and access easier, companies like 3Tera definitely fill a space that is currently empty. A place between the Websphere&#8217;s of the world and do-it-yourself developers Technorati Tags: 3Tera, Virtualization, Grid Computing, Bioinformatics, SaaS, Web Services, Scientific Computing, Software Development powered by performancing firefox MyBlogLogging In the past few months it seems that more and more bloggers have been placing the MyBlogLog widget on their blog so they can see who is coming to their blog. The concept of MyBlogLog(ging) is becoming popular and some have gone even as far as writing guides on how to use it. So why is MyBlogLogging catching on like a wildfire? A picture is worth a thousand words When you look at your blog stats you may see that you had 1000 visitors come to your blog. Unless they commented and left their information you don't really know who your readers are. MyBlogLog shows you who is visiting your blog so that you can put a face to each of your visitors. The personal touch With all the blogs in the blogosphere people have tons of options to choose from. What's going to make a reader visit your blog? MyBlogLog lets you make personal connections with your readers and usually when you make a personal connection, that person is more likely to remember you and your blog. Just like MySpace and Facebook, MyBlogLog provides you tools to build those relationships with your visitors / readers. You can add friends, join communities and even leave comments on other people's profile pages. Being popular is as easy as 1, 2 and 3 One thing that many bloggers strive for is popularity. In the blogosphere popularity is usually defined by traffic and there are 3 ways you can increase your traffic by MyBlogLogging: A lot of popular sites such as TechCrunch and Read/WriteWeb have MyBlogLog widgets that anyone can see. Every time you visit those sites people will see your picture and are likely to click on it and then read about you and your blog. The more sites you visit that have this widget, the more likely you are to get new visitors as a result of it. But the point is not to go to every site that has this widget and steal their visitors, instead it is for you to register for MyBlogLog, put a picture up and keep reading the blogs you regularly read. Once you fill your MyBlogLog profile with all your information you can add friends. All you have to do is browse MyBlogLog and start adding everyone you find interesting as a friend and start conversations with them by leaving profile comments. You don't want to spam, but if you have something valuable to say then say it... by adding and interacting with friends you are building relationships and also traffic to your profile / blog. Every blog is essentially a community. Join communities you are interested in and people with similar interests will find your blog, join it and probably even start reading it. Conclusion MyBlogLog is a social network that allows bloggers and readers with similar interests to connect. I think it is a great service, but many people are concerned about privacy because of all the data they are collecting which can be very valuable to marketers and companies that are interested in knowing people's web surfing habits. Either way, if you are looking to increase your blog readership I recommend trying them out, they even track your stats so you can see how effective MyBlogLogging is for you. The rise of 125 x 125 ads Have you noticed that the hottest ad format for blogs is now those little square 125 x 125 ads? Sites like TechCrunch, Mashable, Read/WriteWeb, GigaOm, and Marketing Pilgrim, just to name a few have them plastered on the top right side of their blogs. So, what's wrong with these ads? Many of these sites charge high amounts for a little 125 x 125 ad that is placed in non premium areas of the website. Thus, the ads do not really get the attention they deserve. If you are looking to advertise on these websites because of branding purposes, these 125 x 125 ads might work, but if you are looking for ads that convert these won't unless you get really creative with them. The ad pictured above is an ad for Text Link Ads; by getting creative they were able to increase their ad's click through rate by 1000%. This shows that ads can be effective if advertisers get creative, but the majority of advertisers just don't spend enough time creating creative ads. It seems like these ads are becoming a standard throughout the blogosphere, but unless companies become creative or bloggers lower their prices, these ad spots are not going to be beneficial to advertisers or get them the ROI that justifies their expense. I'd love to hear other people's thoughts on these types of ads, does anybody else have any experience with them that they would like to share? I would also be curious to know how often these ads are clicked on, and / or if they have any measurable branding related benefits. e-learning 2.0 - how Web technologies are shaping education Written by Steve O'Hear and edited by Richard MacManus. This is a two-part series in which Steve will explore how Web technologies are being used in education. In Part 2 he will profile Elgg, social network software for education, and interview its founders. Much has been written on Read/WriteWeb (and elsewhere) about the effect that web technologies are having on commerce, media, and business in general. But outside of the 'edublogosphere', there's been little coverage of the impact it is having on education. Teachers are starting to explore the potential of blogs, media-sharing services and other social software - which, although not designed specifically for e-learning, can be used to empower students and create exciting new learning opportunities. As I wrote in The Guardian last year: "Like the web itself, the early promise of e-learning - that of empowerment - has not been fully realized. The experience of e-learning for many has been no more than a hand-out published online, coupled with a simple multiple-choice quiz. Hardly inspiring, let alone empowering. But by using these new web services, e-learning has the potential to become far more personal, social and flexible." The traditional approach to e-learning has been to employ the use of a Virtual Learning Environment (VLE), software that is often cumbersome and expensive - and which tends to be structured around courses, timetables, and testing. That is an approach that is too often driven by the needs of the institution rather than the individual learner. In contrast, e-learning 2.0 (as coined by Stephen Downes) takes a 'small pieces, loosely joined' approach that combines the use of discrete but complementary tools and web services - such as blogs, wikis, and other social software - to support the creation of ad-hoc learning communities. Continue reading "e-learning 2.0 - how Web technologies are shaping education" Richard MacManus: Allth.at Launches Innovative Search Agents App Allth.at was one of the 100 top alternative search engines in Charles Knight's February list. It's a search agent that allows you to define a search topic, then refine it with the use of filters, and finally subscribe to it via email or RSS. It's similar in many respects to PubSub, the now defunct 'future search' engine that I was a fan of. I got the chance to catch up with Allth.at founder Morgan Snyder recently, to find out more. How Allth.at works When you go to Allth.at, it at first looks like a normal search engine. This is a good thing, as it means the UI is simple and intuitive (something PubSub never achieved). First you input your desired search - say "web 3.0" ;-) Then you filter, either by using the search sources tabs (made up of common search sources like Google, Yahoo, eBay) or by applying graphical boolean filters, i.e. the drop-down boxes on the left. You can add content sources by clicking the 'Add' tab - for example you can add readwriteweb.com as a source (as I did for the example below). And with the drop-down boxes, you can filter words in or out - including clicking on the 'specify' link to add your own terms. After you're done filtering, you can save your search and choose an alert if required (note: you need to register for an account first). While you can simply come back to the website every now and then and check the latest results of your "saved searches", it's easiest to subscribe to an alert. This of course automates the delivery of new search results, using two methods - subscribe to email notifications, or RSS feeds. You can also filter your saved searches at any time - and this automatically updates the alerts (email, feed). Morgan told me that Allth.at can also filter out the duplicates. Web 3.0 Goodness Morgan pointed out to me that Allth.at is a good example of what Alex Iskold wrote about in his recent popular post Web 3.0: When Web Sites Become Web Services. That post was about what kind of applications will be born once many APIs are opened up (it wasn't about defining 'web 3.0', as some commenters claimed). Morgan says that Allth.at is a good example of what Alex was driving at:  "Allth.at’s goal is to integrate every searchable API in existence. Obviously every website does not have an API. So instead of scraping, we have taken a hierarchical approach that uses a combination of APIs, RSS and “indexed” results (equivalent of a site: search on google or yahoo). When a user selects a source to search, we check to see if that site has an API. If so, chances are we have integrated it and will use it. If not, we’ll check to see if that site has a searchable RSS feed. If so, we’ll use that. If not, then we’ll deliver results off of the index of one of the big engines." Competition Allth.at is not alone in the market segment which Charles Knight has called "Continuous Search Engines". In our February Alt Search Engine list, we noted Swamii, which continually search newspapers, TV, the web (and more) to let you know when new, relevant and cool stuff arrives. There is also Searchbots.net, which gives you your own personal search robot - to continuously search the Internet, trying to find all the best websites it can, on your behalf. You could also consider Google Alerts in this category, since they can be set to "continuous" alerts also. I asked Morgan what is the difference between Allth.at and the competition. He told me that usability and ease-of-use is what differentiates allth.at and noted that even Google CSE and Rollyo don't deliver custom sear
