I just realised that there is only 2 months to Christmas today!

Scary when thinking of all the things I need to do before (not even considering work related stuff 😉

Fixed the annoying membership authentication bug. It was because of namespace problems.

By the way. Welcome to all our new members of this community. Sorry for the delay 😉

Web 2.0 and tag ontologies

Following up on my previous blog. Structure within folksonomies are needed to enable automation by computers on knowledge, but how to get this structure into the folksonomy using tag ontologies seem to be a problem. The usual web 2.0 sites are succesful because they are extremely easy to use. If a social network is difficult to use, then nobody can be bothered to use it! Unfortunately tag ontologies are not know to be simple concepts to master, and adding to that comes the complexity of folksonomies. Nobody in this world can be expected to know a complicated domain (such as programming) fully. This is a problem.

Therefore there is a need to create better tools for collaborative tagging and referencing of tags based on ontologies. Would it be possible to do this using a social network? Would Mr. Doe be interested in tagging not just an entity but also the relation between and entity and its “neighbours”? What would make him do that? These are some the many research questions that pussle my mind right now.

Darkness

This morning was the first morning after the summer where I really felt like having a lay in! It is d*mn hard to get up when it is dark and raining outside. I managed to get up, just to realise that my wife needed the car (although she can hardly drive due to a bruised angle), so I had to walk in the rain to the bus stop 🙁

I've managed to get in to the office somehow, and now I am just annoyed that the whether is nice outside with blue skies!!!!

Is it human nature to never be satisfied? Or is it nature's "nature" to annoy me, well that's another conspiracy theory.

I’ve uploaded a small solitairegame I made a few yrs back. It’s made in oldstyle win32 (mostly because I was curious how win32 works), so it only runs on windows based systems (relies on card.dll, so won’t run on vista/win7 without installing it).

It isn’t your traditional solitaire as same suite goes on same suite – not mixed colors. Have a go at it :o)

Allegro

posted by Karsten

in RedGloo

Allegro is a games developments library, which is reasonably easy to use. Here reasonably means that you need to be a c or python programmer!

If you are (or hopefully you’ll be in a years time) Allegro is a fast direct access library to the graphics card and IO system of your computer. Additionally it is a cross platform library that is implemented on Windows, Linux, Apple and others. I’ve used it a bit and can only recommend it!

Folksonomies and tag ontologies

posted by Karsten

It seems to me that folksonomies are way too vague in the semantics department. They are very valuable in describing the “world”, because they are produced by the collective, however there simply is a lag of semantic meaning in the way they are described in the data. Hence there is a need for a “tag ontology” which describes the semantic relations between the elements in the folksonomy. This would allow automation from free text, images, video etc. to aggregated semantics based applications, such as search, comparison, and translations. This is simply not possible with standard standalone folksonomies…

Should this site be called "SSE Elgg site" or could there be a better name?
