Readability: Enjoy Reading. Support Writing. The Semantic Web & THE POWER OF PULL » Blog March 25, 2012 The phone is the new platform – everything is converging onto the “smart phone.” Soon, we’ll use our phones to manage our homes, purchase things, board an airplane, sign a document, get into our office buildings, and much much more. And yet today’s phones basically mimic our desktop computers. Do you really want to open a Word or Excel document on your phone? The answer to today’s scalability problems is the personal data locker. Thank you.

About Company Profile Pinyadda is an early-stage internet company based in Boston, Massachusetts. Our product is a web application designed to make it easy to gather, customize, and share news and information from across the web. Pinyadda users create Personalized Information Networks made up of people, sites, and topics. Our Story Pinyadda is the brainchild of Chase Garbarino (CEO) and Kevin McCarthy (VP Technology). Inspired by their experience of information overload while working on their first company, Chase and Kevin couldn't escape the idea of a perfect information system - one that knew what you were looking for and delivered it in real time. The ideal system, they concluded, had to do three things: it should gather information from the sites and blogs they read regularly; it should mimic the experience of receiving links and comments from the people in their personal networks; and it should be continually searching for information about subjects they were interested in.
Tofu Tofu is a novel application to address the common problem that people don't like reading text on the screen. Why is that anyway? I believe there are two main reasons: line width and visual instability. Text is usually very wide on the screen, which makes going from the end of one line to the beginning of the next difficult. That's why newspapers have narrow columns: It makes them faster to read. So why not just take a normal window and make it narrower, scrolling down as you need? In Tofu, text is arranged in columns, and each column is only as high as your window. Tofu also includes some other useful features to make reading easier. Tofu 2.0 features PDF support, trackpad scrolling and usability improvements, and is a Universal Binary.Revision 2.0.1 fixes bugs with the Tofu Service, full-screen mode and hyphenation.

Darwin Ecosystem Announces a Series of Free Darwin Editions™ Operating in real time, the Darwin Awareness Engine™ allows for the efficient scanning of content to find both breaking news and underlying casual patterns in the topics of your interest. Rather than using semantic technology to attempt to enable understanding by a computer, their approach to awareness is based on Chaos Theory and allows the content to self organize. This approach eliminates the need for a predetermined taxonomy or the ability to use SEO techniques. It provides a visualization of results that enables a person to make more informed decisions about where to look next. Darwin Ecosystem has recently announced a series of themed Darwin Editions™ powered by the Awareness Engine™ that focus on specific topics to better demonstrate its capabilities and as a service to our readers. These can each be accessed at no cost through a brief registration process. These Darwin Editions provide a way to monitor the conversations within several focused areas.
The Semantic Web & THE POWER OF PULL » Blog Archive » The Semantic Web Acid Test January 15, 2010 It’s early days in the semantic web, and every VC is starting to use the word semantic like it’s the next social networking. It isn’t the next social networking. It’s hard. Unstructured Silo Push is like most database-driven web sites, where the documents and data are buried in a database, and you must query the database to learn what’s in it. Unstructured Web Push is like most blogs, articles, PDFs, tables, spreadsheets, podcasts, videos, and other mixed text and data online. Unstructured Silo Pull is a scenario where data lives in a database, has very little structure, but can still be accessed from anywhere, thanks to a unique set of names. Unstructured Web Pull includes documents that can be pulled into other systems right from the web, even though they lack structure. Semi-structured Silo Push Most semi-structured content is set up this way, in databases that must be queried and essentially designed for humans to interpret. Next: An Open Letter to Ray Ozzie

Thus, “Markdown” is two things: (1) a plain text formatting syntax; and (2) a software tool, written in Perl, that converts the plain text formatting to HTML. The overriding design goal for Markdown’s formatting syntax is to make it as readable as possible. The best way to get a feel for Markdown’s formatting syntax is simply to look at a Markdown-formatted document. (You can use this ‘.text’ suffix trick to view the Markdown source for the content of each of the pages in this section, e.g. the Syntax and License pages.) Markdown is free software, available under a BSD-style open source license. Discussion List I’ve set up a public mailing list for discussion about Markdown. It’s my hope that the mailing list will lead to good ideas for future improvements to Markdown. Installation and Requirements Markdown requires Perl 5.6.0 or later.
