Mobile Weblog: Virtual Post-It Notes

Mobile Technology Weblog has a story about mobile virtual Post-It notes.

It is related to attaching annotations to a particular place or - vice versa - locative metadata to different kinds media.

GPS World runs a story about WorldBoard.
This is a system that allows you to place virtual notes at specific locations around the world - a kind of digital Post-it Note, that others can find and read in the future.

Huh? Well, an example might be that you see a flower growing in the wild. You leave a note for future passers by that the flower is endangered, that it's called a Robbins Cinquefoil, along with a picture of it in full bloom. And being in an inspired mood, you record a poem you've just made up and leave an audio file of that too.

Others can access that information, either by visiting the physical location or by accessing it over the web. Hence, if you wanted to see a Robbins Cinquefoil for yourself, you could find the nearest one to you.

Jo Walsh has more information about the locative media in the semantic web:

Living Semantic Web

( subtitle - "Does the Semantic Web behave like a living system?" )

One can find amazing things when not looking for them.
Let's call that peripheral vision, ok? ;)

Quote from the webpage:

" The goal of this work is to show how to model and analyse the Semantic Web as a whole, i.e. as a complex system.

To explain the difference between simple and complex systems, the terms “interconnected” or “interwoven” are somehow essential. Qualitatively, to understand the behaviour of a complex system, we must understand not only how the parts interact but also how they act together to form the behaviour of the whole. "

Found this link while looking for graph analysis and visualization software.

This research project uses software called Pajek - a tool for large network analysis.
Looks very powerful. With so many options available I just feel lost - where do we begin?

And another question - it does not understand GraphViz .DOT files.
Is there a converter from .DOT to Pajek's file format?

BTW program's name Pajek comes from a Slovenian word for spider.
