Behavioral Inference across Cultures: Using Telephones as a Cultural Lens

Eagle, N.

Intelligent Systems, IEEE

Volume 23, Issue 4, July-Aug. 2008 Page(s):62 - 64

Digital Object Identifier 10.1109/MIS.2008.58

Summary:Most people carry mobile telephones, which automatically capture behavioral data and store it in service provider databases around the world. The different types of captured data can provide insight into human cultures. Examples from various cultures and hundreds of millions of individuals illustrate how phones can serve as a cultural lens, improving our understanding of social networks, outlier events, and a culture's pace of life.

Message Queue Evaluation Notes - Second Life Wiki

by greut 1 comment

One of the infrastructure tools that we've identified for the future internal architecture of Second Life is messaging. Message queuing systems allow systems that send messages to not have to worry about how they will be delivered, and allow consumers of messages to gather whichever ones interest them, at their own pace.

And the winner is…

Diki live demo — The Pace Project - privacy in the social semantic web

by parmentierf (via)
Diki is a peer-to-peer (or better: friend-to-friend) network for social semantic web application. Think of it as an instant messenger program for social networks like del.icio.us, bibsonomy, citeseer, facebook or studivz. Unlike those social networks, diki does not have a central server that stores your private data. The idea of diki is to create a social network that respects the users' privacy but giving them all functionality that server-based social networks have. In the current release you can create bookmarks, tag them and invite friends. Then you can search for bookmarks in your friends-network.

ODP - Open Directory Project

by Emaux & 17 others
The Open Directory Project is the largest, most comprehensive human-edited directory of the Web. It is constructed and maintained by a vast, global community of volunteer editors. The Republic of the Web The web continues to grow at staggering rates. Automated search engines are increasingly unable to turn up useful results to search queries. The small paid editorial staffs at commercial directory sites can't keep up with submissions, and the quality and comprehensiveness of their directories has suffered. Link rot is setting in and they can't keep pace with the growth of the Internet. Instead of fighting the explosive growth of the Internet, the Open Directory provides the means for the Internet to organize itself. As the Internet grows, so do the number of net-citizens. These citizens can each organize a small portion of the web and present it back to the rest of the population, culling out the bad and useless and keeping only the best content.

A List Apart: Articles: Mapping Memory: Web Designer as Information Cartographer

by Neewok

Theory often takes a back seat to practice in the field of web design—after all, it’s hard enough to keep up with the latest acronyms without trying to carve out time for navel gazing about the profession. As a result, innovation in the way we think about our creations has lagged behind the breakneck pace of change in the technologies we use to create them.

Submerged - Subversion Blog - Branching Strategy Questioned...

by mbertier & 1 other (via)
It is an exciting time for Subversion as its adoption continues at a dizzying pace in enterprises. I'm out there helping that adoption so I'm a bit late in posting the questions and answers I promised around the three basic branching strategies that I covered in the last two webinars in which I presented (Branching and Merging Strategies for Subversion 1.5 and Advanced Merge Tracking and Branching with Subversion 1.5). Hopefully these will be useful to many of you.

An Intolerant Minority

by brasch
[SUMMARY: The chairman of the Joint Chiefs of Staff, Gen. Peter Pace, says that homosexuality is immoral. He later modified that statement by saying he should have said only that he supports the military’s “Don’t Ask, Don’t Tell” policy. That policy, a compromise, should never have been enacted; it’s now time to repeal it and permit gays to serve openly in the military.]

Nursing Agency or Medical Recruiting Firm

by MrRobert
The healthcare industry is experiencing unprecedented shortages due to the baby-boomer generation reaching retirement age. Individuals are leaving the workforce at record pace, leaving hospitals nationwide short of staff. At the same time, retirees require three times the healthcare services. As a result, healthcare recruiting services are in high demand. Placement of a nurse or imaging tech can generate $12,000 to $18,000 in recruiting fees, while a pharmacist or physician can bring in $20,000 to $30,000. These are not numbers we’ve created, but well known figures recognized across the industry.

Aggregate Knowledge

by cyberien
Discovery Moves Beyond Search Internet search works well, particularly when you know the precise items for which you are looking. What happens, however, when you can’t find the magic words to type into your search box? Discovering the Wisdom of Crowds Successful media and retail players are continually looking for ways to expand content discovery and enable visitors to quickly identify what interests them most. The way this has been done in the past is to employ key-word searching or editorial-based recommendations to “recommend” additional content of interest. Because news and product content can change by the minute, it is extraordinarily challenging for human editors to keep pace with all but the most-visited news stories or products. The net result is an over sampling of some content while the larger database of unseen, yet related content remains under-utilized. Monetizing Your Content Investment Both retail and media sites alike invest significant sums capturing, managing, and promoting their respective content inventory. Statistically, however, most users will only see a very limited percentage of content. Site managers have addressed this visibility challenge by relying on human editorial ranking often in conjunction with costly enterprise content management and search tools. These tools are both expensive and not capable of responding to behavioral changes in real time. The net effect of this is sub-optimal page performance and under-performing click-through rates. Real-Time Relevancy As your content inventory changes, so should the content associations. With Aggregate Knowledge’s Discovery for Media™ and Discovery for Retail™, your content is instantly optimized to changes in user demand. Changes in ad campaigns, price promotions or inventory volume can have important impacts on user behavior. Your site should be able to not only capture that behavioral pattern, but also deliver the content that most resonates with your customer’s interest and intent.
