Lately we’ve been tinkering with deploying Android beyond the phone (using Google’s open-source Android to connect devices to each other and the web), so we thought we’d see if we could leverage the efficiency of Android on a BeagleBoard, the accessibility of wireless webcams, and the ease of a Flickr feed to a custom Google Gadget to track the ups and downs of our metered utilities. Why webcams? While there may be a few compelling (low-cost, low-impact) products out there to monitor your electric meter, there are no comparable products for reading gas or water meters. So until the really smart grid arrives, here’s a way to chart your whole utility spend on your own Google homepage.

Des artistes et des chercheurs créent des oeuvres qui ne peuvent exister que si elles sont alimentées par des sources extérieures. En retour, elles offrent un ou plusieurs signaux que les autres auteurs peuvent à leur tour utiliser. Chaque participant reçoit des flux du réseau qu'il est libre d'utiliser, ignorer, détourner. En échange, il doit renvoyer au réseau ses propres flux. Ainsi, la création se nourrit du flux, de l'échange d'un flux non pas préexistant mais produit par d'autres artistes qui acceptent de le partager. Il s'agit donc d'un réseau de création Peer to Peer par opposition à un réseau de consommation P2P. Ces échanges sont permis grâce à la mise en place d'une plateforme technologique innovante "the art collider", qui permet l’échange en temps réel de flux (vidéo, son, données…). Le projet privilégie une approche open source.

" Frédéric CAVAZZA Un pas de plus vers le web social en temps réel avec Cliqset 4 commentaires Publié par Frédéric CAVAZZA le 2 octobre 2009 dans Actualité Depuis le rachat cet été de FriendFeed par Facebook et la publication du code source de Tornado, le serveur qui va avec, nous pensions que le créneau des services d’agrégation sociale était bouché. Que nenni car Cliqset ambitionne de changer tout cela avec sa nouvelle version qui vient de sortie en beta : It’s Here! Cliqset’s Real-Time Community. Pour faire simple, Cliqset est un service d’agrégation qui permet de compiler votre activité sur les différents médias sociaux (70 services en tout), de les retraiter en un format standardiser (Activity Streams) et de le rendre accessible (au travers d’API) dans un flux unique et temps réel."

Voici un projet open-source qui dépasse le simple cadre de l’installation simplifiée de WordPress, mais peut déjà rendre un fier service sur ce domaine. La Distribution est un projet du français François Hodierne (déjà créateur de BlogMarks.net), dont l’objectif est de simplifier “la distribution et la gestion du cycle de vie des applications web”. Dans les faits, à partir du moment où La Distribution est installé chez vous, vous pouvez installer n’importe quelle application reconnue par LD en un clic. Parmi ces applications se trouvent DokiWiki, Gallery, bbPress, MoonMoon, Laconica, SPIP, Habari, RoundCube… et bien sûr WordPress.
While our directory is full of fantastic themes, sometimes people want to use something that they know has support behind it, and don't mind paying for that. Contrary to popular belief, GPL doesn't say that everything must be zero-cost, just that when you receive the software or theme that it not restrict your freedoms in how you use it. With that in mind, here are a collection of folks who provide GPL themes with extra paid services available around them. Some of them you may pay for access, some of them are membership sites, some may give you the theme for zero-cost and just charge for support. What they all have in common is people behind them who support open source, WordPress, and its GPL license.
Creating Offline Web Applications With Dojo Offline by Brad Neuberg (SitePen), September 23rd, 2007 This tutorial steps you through creating offline web applications using Dojo Offline. What is Dojo Offline? Dojo Offline is an open-source toolkit that makes it easy to create sophisticated, offline web applications. It sits on top of Google Gears, a plugin from Google that helps extend web browsers with new functionality. Dojo Offline makes working with Google Gears easier; extends it with important functionality; creates a higher-level API than Google Gears provides; and exposes developer productivity features. In particular, Dojo Offline provides the following functionality: An offline widget that you can easily embed in your web page with just a few lines of code, automatically providing the user with network feedback, sync messages, offline instructions, and more A sync framework to help you store actions done while offline and sync them with a server once back on the network Automatic network and application-availability detection to determine when your application is on- or off-line so that you can take appropriate action A slurp() method that automatically scans the page and figures out all the resources that you need offline, including images, stylesheets, scripts, etc.; this is much easier than having to manually maintain which resources should be available offline, especially during development. Dojo Storage, an easy to use hashtable abstraction for storing offline data for when you don't need the heaviness of Google Gear's SQL abstraction; under the covers Dojo Storage saves its data into Google Gears Dojo SQL, an easy to use SQL layer that executes SQL statements and returns them as ordinary JavaScript objects New ENCRYPT() and DECRYPT() SQL keywords that you can mix in when using Dojo SQL, to get transparent cryptography for columns of data. Cryptography is done on a Google Worker Pool thread, so that the browser UI is responsive. Integration with the rest of Dojo, such as the Dojo Event system
L’installation de Dolphin se fait par l’intermédiaire d’un installateur et s’avère simple. Le script est très complet et un peu de temps sera nécessaire pour faire le tour de toutes les options… Les principales caractéristiques : * Création/administration de profil * Blog pour chaque membre * Partage et upload de Photos, Vidéos et musiques * Chat, chat vidéo et webmessenger * Création de groupes de discussion * “Links”, “FAQ”, “About us”, “Contact us”, “Privacy”, “Terms of use”, “Services” pages * Integration d’Orca Interactive, script Forum * Support multilangages * et beaucoup plus… Le script, dans sa version gratuite, impose de laisser un logo et un lien de retour. Le système payant est plus “étonnant” : un prix en fonction du temps duquel vous souhaitez retirer la publicité… de 3 mois à toujours… évidemment le prix augmente en conséquence…
