Virtual Worlds Review

http://www.virtualworldsreview.com/

What is it that we want out of an SNS?

The person is obviously expecting something from the SNS that none
have provided so far. What is it that we want from an SNS that no
service is yet providing? There is something about SNS's that make
them different from other mediums - IM, email, blogs ... What is it
exactly that we are expecting SNS's to do for us? And why are current
SNS's failing to deliver that?

Maybe we expect SNS's to be a virtual world, a second life that we can
immerse ourselves into. When we connect to an SNS site, we want to
stop by the living room and see who else is already there. There are
live discussions going on about cool things. We can choose to jump
into the conversation, or we can hang back and listen. Discussions are
live, so it's more like a chat room than a Usenet newsgroup. But
unlike a chat room, nobody's anonymous -- at any time we can click on
a person's profile to get an in-depth look at their interests and
beliefs, their pictures, plus all sorts of statistics and metrics
(ratings/karma, conversation frequency, transcripts of past
conversations, Google hits, complaints, ...). It's like a virtual pub,
an online version of Cheers that we go to after a long day of work.

Maybe the ideal SNS would be called VirtualPub, or Life2. It would
basically be live chatting. When you log on, you can see if your
friend Charles is online, and if not, you can join one of the
conversations (limit 10 people per conversation, to keep things sane).
You can see a picture of everyone in the conversation, and clicking on
a picture takes you to more pictures if any are available. To help you
decide whether you want to join a live conversation, you are provided
with a summary of each person's profile beside their picture -- if you
want to do more research, you can click the summary to get an
extensive profile of that person's interests.

The ideal SNS would allow more modes of collaboration than messaging.
Like streaming audio pumping out music: background music, like in a
party, or music that the group is analyzing and commenting on in real
time (like the latest release by a punk band). They could all be
watching a video and commenting on it in real time. Or browsing the
web together in a mini-window. Or drawing on a whiteboard, for a bunch
of programming enthusiasts. Or sending little gifts to each other via
Amazon.

And you could leave whenever you wanted. It's just your 15 minutes of
hanging out with people. Hanging out is live - so instant messaging
please instead of forums. But hanging out is intimate, so the profiles
and photos are important. And hanging out often happens around a
secondary activity, so we need to be able to listen to music together,
watch video together, browse the web together, work on a whiteboard
together, send gifts to each other, and more and more stuff together
as ideas occur to the SNS designers. In short, we want to be able to
do cool stuff together on SNS systems, more than just profiles and
forums.

What I do for fun (besides computer stuff)

I was kind of stumped when you asked me this, but after a while I
thought of something I do for fun besides exploring the internet, and
that is: reading poetry. I have this big book of English verse that I
love to read -- it quiets me down inside. Anyway, FYI.

Re: hi

Hi Takeshi -- Sounds like you were delighted to reconnect with your
friends. And you are uncomfortable with the high temperature! Yes I
also am uncomfortable with the high temperature -- last night, I took
the cushions from the sofa in the living room and made a makeshift bed
near the sliding door in the dining room, because it was so hot!

Instead of slapping on some useless graphics on the front of a textbook, how about covering the front and bach covers with thumbnails of all the figures. Then at a glance you can see what the book contains, and you have a handy index that makes it easy to find any picture.

Hi Judi -- Would you let me know Sunday's theme ...

How then shall we live, knowing we shall die?

Cherish the time I spend with my mother. Delight in examining the things around me. Learn as much as I can from my Dad about him. What kind of life will I not regret in the end? Learning from Sister Judi. Contemplation and action (hanging out with people whom few hang out with).

You might want to add it to your list of UML tools.

Thoughts as I sit ...

... under a street lamp in the Saanich Centre: The proportion of my life online compared to reality. Need for more spirituality. Mom. Money, bills. The Philippines. Books on living with purpose and living prayerfully. Meditating by the waves in Sidney. Need a way to wake up to reality, a sudden jolt. Poetry. How my mind feels empty after using the computer for an hour. How life is flying past and time is running out.

Hi Dad

Have you thought recently about writing a book or memoirs? I'd be interested in reading about your thoughts and your life stories.

Love, Jon

Sister Judi -- I want to express my gratitude to you ...

... for introducing me to several ideas that are shaping my life:

ACF people with blogs?

I'm curious to know what other ACF people have blogs. Mine's at
http://jonaquino.blogspot.com. I'd like to add interesting blogs to my
Bloglines reader.

If an online article doesn't provide a commenting facility ...

... but you have a burning desire to leave a comment, a good place would be: in the comments box of a prominent blog that references the article. How do you find such a comments box? Paste the article's url into technorati and do a search by authority. (Please Technorati make searches faster, like Google!)

Improved XML2HTML, Internet Explorer style

I wrote a cool Plagiarism Detector that uses Groovy and Google

http://wiki.codehaus.org/groovy/PlagiarismDetector

Unfortunately, I needed to shell-out to a one-line batch file because
String#execute has limitations (it ignores quotation marks, for
example). What's probably happening is that it's calling Java's
Runtime#execute, which also has these limitations. Anyway, I wish
Groovy would let me execute any shell command I wanted. Python and
Ruby let me do this.

Then I would never ever write a batch file again -- I would use Groovy instead!

Another one of Mom's fantastic lunches

PushThatFreakinButton (PTFB) is one of the greatest software programs ever. You know how lots of programs pop up a window to ask you "Are you sure" you want to do this or that, when it's perfectly obvious that you do? Whenever that happens, drag the PTFB hand over the OK button, and it will automatically push the button for you in the future. As you can see from this picture, I use PTFB extensively.

Tipping the LCD back helps

I've discovered that angling the LCD back (less vertical) relieves my
eyestrain significantly. Probably something to do with how we
continually glance at the taskbar.

I may have found a significant way to reduce my eyestrain

I noticed that when I look down (e.g. at the taskbar) I feel the
eyestrain. So the fix is to tilt the monitor back more.

A good design decision in IGW: keeping the attribute mappings outside
of the Java code, and letting them be code (SQL) rather than simple
names.
