  1. Re:Maybe on UN Makes Its Statistical Data Free and Searchable · · Score: 5, Informative

    If you really would have been interested in the source, you would have seen the BIG BOX below the data that says 'SOURCE' with a short description and a link ORIGINAL DATA that links to the organisation that provided the data. and after 2 minutes of browsing, I found this: http://mdgs.un.org/unsd/mdg/SeriesDetail.aspx?srid=749 where you can find information how the data was collected.

    stop whining, start looking. thanks.

    did anyone mention plazes yet?

    Plazes is a grassroot approach to location-aware interaction, using the local network you are connected to as location reference. Plazes allows you to share your location with the people you know and to discover people and plazes around you. It's the navigation system for your social life and it's absolutely free.

  10. try hamachi... on Video Conferencing Behind a Firewall? · · Score: 1

    ... it's not a videoconferencing software, but it sets up vpn groups. every client get's an own additional ip and the software got around every firewall/nat I used it. plus the streams are encrypted and transfered via p2p.

    give it a try: http://www.hamachi.cc/

    and use your prefered video conferencing software with it.

    I am currently streaming my music from my office machine to my home computer. both behind firewalls and routers.

    btw. it's windows only.

  14. del.icio.us and tagging on Folksonomies In Del.icio.us and Flickr · · Score: 2, Interesting

    Del.icio.us is a bookmarking system. Joshua Schachter programmed it to have a bookmarking system and as far as I know, he did it for himself, not for the public at first.

    So, _you_ add a bookmark, _you_ tag it, so _you_ can organize your links in the way you like it. There are many ways to categorize bookmarks and the tagging system allows you to use multiple ways in one.

    I recreated del.icio.us for porn (porn-a-licious.com) and something interesting happend: In the beginning, people tended to tag their posts in the usual way (hardcore, softcore, etc.). Then came people tagging their bookmarks using their favorite porn star names as tags (luba, marketa, etc.). And than came a guy starting to tag them using tags like f, ff, fm, ffm, etc. And now, most people tend to combine all or some of these types of tags.

    there is no horizontal, vertical or other buzzword-way to tag. You just start to organize your bookmarks in the way you like it. And most people may adopt the most useful tag-styles creating a huge, very well organized link list.

    You don't need a synonym control if you have enough users because if the link is important there will be someone who will post that link with tags assigned to them you would use, too. Porn.a.licious is bookmarked often on del.icio.us, and since some users still try to hide their porn-bookmarks, not all tags used were really useful (sometimes, porn.a.licious was tagged with 'cars' or something like that).
