I signed up to Volunteer for the Brewers 10K race in MKE on Sept 20th. Helping with the post-race results. Today I’ve read my email, and there it was, Internal Vacancy Announcement from HR. “IT Service Delivery Manager”. Please apply if you want.

Told to myself, if that’s for me, why did it even have to be announced? Nobody told me a thing. I asked the Boss for comments. He was frank. To my legitimate question “you don’t have a Head of our department, can’t you just make him a Head?” So there goes.I used to report to the CTO.Now I’m used as a crowd member to support this guy, he becomes a manager and gets ME as employee (top quality, no supervision required).I get another level of hierarchy over me, a meddling “manager”, and an application rejection on my history. I still will fight. Despite an impulse to go back to Reminders, I’m keeping the LifeTopix as project management there is what I need. 4 miles. My Web 2.0 BETA. O'Reilly Network: What Is Web 2.0. Published on O'Reilly ( See this if you're having trouble printing code examples by Tim O'Reilly 09/30/2005 Oct. 2009: Tim O'Reilly and John Battelle answer the question of "What's next for Web 2.0?

" in Web Squared: Web 2.0 Five Years On. The bursting of the dot-com bubble in the fall of 2001 marked a turning point for the web. Many people concluded that the web was overhyped, when in fact bubbles and consequent shakeouts appear to be a common feature of all technological revolutions. Shakeouts typically mark the point at which an ascendant technology is ready to take its place at center stage. The pretenders are given the bum's rush, the real success stories show their strength, and there begins to be an understanding of what separates one from the other. The concept of "Web 2.0" began with a conference brainstorming session between O'Reilly and MediaLive International.

This article is an attempt to clarify just what we mean by Web 2.0. The list went on and on. 1. 2. You’re It! Gordon Luk’s Freetag, an Open Source Tagging / Folksonomy module. Folksonomies: power to the people. ISKO Italia. Documenti paper presented at the ISKO Italy-UniMIB meeting : Milan : June 24, 2005 Introduction In recent times, an unprecedented amount of Web content has begun to be generated through web logs, wikis and other social tools thanks to lower technology and cost barriers. We have gone past a critical mass of connectivity between people that has introduced a new revolutionary ability to communicate, collaborate and share goods online. To respond to these increased informational and exchange needs, new communication models are emerging and producing an incredible amount of distributed information that information management professionals, information architects, librarians and knowledge workers at large need to link, aggregate, and organize in order to extract knowledge.

Folksonomies attempt to provide a solution to this issue, by introducing an innovative distributed approach based on social classification.

Half a decade ago the guys in control of the world-wide-web standards decided to take things to the next level. They called their concept the Semantic Web and it promised to create a whole new world of web usability by tying different web pages together based on meaning and purpose. Finally they could bring rationality and organization to the wild tangle of links we call the web! Tim Berners-Lee, the inventor of the web, was one of the main drivers behind this effort. (Maybe the anarchy he created was too much for him.) They wanted something powerful, flexible and capable of meeting everyone's need. And, while they were at it, they wanted something you could write a few academic papers about.

Their original idea was to come up with some top-level generic categories and below them would be more specific sub-categories with further sub-categories below that, so that a web page about MG Midgets might be categorized as 'technology / transportation / automobiles / sports cars / British'.
