Annotating billions of HTML documents in a bottom-up way or building top-down tools that can automagicallyinterpret the existing information are the two approaches that we discussed. Together these approaches would result in a globaldatabase which will make the web even more connected.The...

The Rise of Twitter as a Platform for Serious Discourse
via ReadWriteWeb by Josh Catone on January 30, 2008
For 2007, our Best Web LittleCo was Twitter, the microblogging/status application that captured the collective attention of Silicon Valley at SXSW last winter and has been on a meteoric rise ever since. We picked Twitter because it "has captured the imagination and become a new hybrid of chat, social networking and blogging." But, unlike 2006's Best LittleCo YouTube, which has become firmly...

Google Gathers Social Graph Information From The Web, Launches API
via TechCrunch by Michael Arrington on February 01, 2008
Tens of millions of people have been busy the last few years building Facebook’s most valuable asset - their social graph. As people add friends, and those people add friends, Facebook gets to understand exactly how its users know each other. And as we saw with their “social ads platform,” where users essentially (and sometimes unwittingly) pimp services to each other, it’s not hard to...

Streem: A Better Tumblr?
via Mashable! by Kristen Nicole on February 21, 2008
Streem is a new micro-blogging tool that would be likened more to Tumblr than Twitter, but even the distinctions between Streem and Tumblr are noteworthy. I read Streem’s about section and saw that the site’s creator, Imran Zaidi, is hoping to do five things with the site. One of those things is to flatten the playing field between bloggers and commenters, making comments more of an...

Twitter for Music
via TechCrunch by Mark Hendrickson on May 13, 2008
Twitter is an efficient technology for spreading and harvesting concise ideas. Unfortunately, it’s not so great for sharing rich media. Want to broadcast a video? You’ll have to settle for a TinyURL to YouTube, or maybe switch over to Seesmic altogether. Pownce improves on the Twitter model by supporting file transfers and at least one new data type: the structured event. It also appears to...
