My Likes #visualization #folksonomy
I like visualizations as they make it possible to showcase data in a way which is clear. And I remember that although a picture might tell a thousand words an image needs to be framed in a context. The context for the images below is folksonomy, and as you can see from the images I love my tags.
On the left is the Wordle graphic for my del.icio.us tags, on the right the Wordle for this blog.
Pretty clear when my interests lie. How about you? Post your Wordles in the comments below.
Proof of Concept: Blog + Wiki #quora #bliki #curation
I’ve been sick all week, flue. And it hasn’t stopped me for thinking big thoughts.

I was reading “Where Have All The Flowers Gone” and suddenly stopped when I noticed that the author was using a Wiki as a blog, then I thought about it and a picture of the advantages of combining a blog and wiki together. Besides from the obvious wiki markup which can be used in the blog, also the ability for updates to wiki/blog items to be posted into the blog stream for RSS, it’s also possible to use [[wiki markup]] to create a backlog of items you may wish to blog about. I naturally googled it and discovered that the Bliki already exists as an idea:
A bliki […] combines features from both: as with blogs, posts or articles appear in reverse chronological order on the front page, with the most recent one at the top; but editing is done in wiki style, with a version history for each page and special markup tags.
With the power of hindsight I think that the original creator missed a feature, which is also sidelined in this article. My love of folksonomy obviously requires me to question whether the addition of articles related from curation, folksonomy, tagging or social bookmarking sites would be a perfect addition to creating an all inclusive curation environment. Quora has moved fora into the bliki field, although as with a wiki it relies more on created content than on external content.

Just Finished Reading: “Wikinomics” #books #ontogenesis
I like Ontologies, Taxonomies and Folksonomies. I’m currently reading Wikinomics, I bought Blink at the same time. Wikinomics is is quite interesting, and it is filling me with lots of ideas. It’s also gotten me back on the Ontology and Semantic Web path. Related to that I was reading an article I found with Technorati on Identity Blog about privacy and was confronted with Human Ontogenesis. (Read the article, or wait until I reference it again and then read it.)
