RVW Redux - OpenReviews
Hey Arnaud - take a look at what Alf Eaton just updated - this time utilizing Mozilla’s GreaseMonkey.
Since you’ve been impelementing Structured blogging in OPML - why don’t you get everything into Alf’s namespace - and set up a shared Review server.
I bet the lower case semantic web folks will create a microformat called ‘review’ - or maybe it’s has to be a smaller chunk of ‘info’ - like ‘morsel’ - or ‘hotel room key’ or ‘tire’.
But it’s not a coincidence that all this activity is starting to percolate. It was destined to happen - once people got tired of talking about “what is blogging.”
What’s been missing up til now have been the specific namespaces or microformat types - which are appearing, bottom up, literally out of the woodwork.
And with services and APIs like Google Maps, Flickt, de.licio.us and EVDB available - how long will it be til we have aggregators supporting these formats - presenting “easy-to-use” interfaces for humans.
Next step after that - is that it’s all available on our smartphones and then we can give Howard Rheingold what I promised him: “tools for the mob.” And make Russell Beattie happy.
