Digitalshadowcaster (TM)

As the rate of creation of content increases so does the challenge of following what was done by whom and that’s where digitalshadowcaster (TM). The idea is interesting to content producers. Thus, the life cycle of an object may “Cast” a “Digital Shadow” (DS) that captures real time key information events and actions. A given DS allows for the ordered delivery of proprietary services managed over a predictable and transparent network of Object Based Representations in Object to Object (O2O) relationships derived form Actions and Events performed on the objects by agents with specified Roles.

The Digital Media Project - Summary

Two nights ago I got an invite from a friend at Kendra inviting me to come to the Friday session of this event. The event was held at Queen Mary University in London. The first session of the morning was to tell us more about the Digital Media project. The talk was given by Leonardo Chiariglione. What I found interesting about this project and this movement is that it’s looking at the need for DRM as a good thing.

My tweeting habit

Dacort on twitter has given me access to a site (I am not yet free to disclose the URL yet) where we can see our twitter activity in graphic form. It gives us a nice overview of how strong our twitter habit is. (click image to see full graph) When I started using twitter in May you can see I was very quiet and it progressed quietly over until August. In August I started to tweet.

Screening: Kosovo, the Valley

warzabidul - Jan 0, 2009 I know that the Frontline Club in London screened it, going to see if they can give me more information about how to get a copy. Did some quick research and so far no luck but if I find anything I’ll let you know.

Screening: Kosovo, the Valley

Last night I went to watch an observational documentary called Kosovo, the Valley, about the conflict in Kosovo in 1998. The event took place at the Frontline club in London. The documentary starts with a graphic scene of the aftermath of an attack and takes a look at both the Albanian side of the conflict and the Serb. It’s a good documentary that helps to understand how the conflict was. Keep in mind that the documentary was shot back in 1998 and finished in 1999.

Video Insider

Jennifer - Jan 0, 2008 Yup, I agree - this is a good way of using links. :) That’s how I try to do it too - give the gist of the information and then link-back to the original content. It’s like giving people just a taste to whet their appetites. They can be satisfied with that nibble, or they can click to get more. It’s their choice.

Video Insider

I’ve seen a lot of people create link posts where there’s no comment just links and these are not effective. They’re not effective because they require the audience to click through and read the entire post to see what you thought was of interest. Instead I’m going to choose key paragraphs and link to the article. If you like the paragraph then simply click on the link and you’ll get the full article within it’s context.

Twitter desaturation

Danacea - Jan 0, 2008 We all use twitter differently, but to me it’s a two-way deal. There are people I follow who don’t follow me back - but they’re senior and respected members of he community from whom I’ve learned a great deal. Otherwise, the conversation, the interaction IS the community and unless it’s two-way, then I do find it pointless… …feels like standing outside a room with your ear pressed to the door - uncomfortable and pointless!

Twitter desaturation

Due to the quantity of people using twitter it’s purpose has changed. From being a place where you tell people what you’re up to it’s become a place where you discuss what you’re up to and what you’re thinking about. As a result of this following people without them following you back is pointless. I went through my twitter list this morning and it was at over 530 people being followed.
