Barcamp

Web 1.0 and 2.0 this week

Kaliya Young · September 30, 2005 · Leave a Comment

So I have been off and about the world for a few weeks. I am finally back in the bay area and trying to recover from the nasty cold that I caught while at Accelerating Change. I had a great week at Web of Change except I was fighting the cold. I had more great meetings about the forthcoming global launch of i-names services this week in Palo Alto.
Next week will be a big week. I am going to be at Web 2.0 and just found out about the ‘alternative summit’ Web 1.0 happening simultaneously.

On Wednesday at the House of Shields and sponsored by 43 Folders and the year 1998, with generous contributions from Adaptive Path, Mule Design, WordPress, Blogger, and Flickr.
We will meet to discuss line breaks, spacer gifs, and the ability to launch links in a new browser window.
There will be beer.
Let’s make this summit more successful than the last one, please.

This is an interesting trend the creation of grass roots summits occurring as a counter point (FOO and BAR Camp) and open source alternative to giant corporate walled gardens talking about the future.

External Brain Restored

Kaliya Young · September 6, 2005 · Leave a Comment

I am back after a bit of an unintended break. While at BarCamp my external brain went into coma [my computer died] someone asked if it had a death by stickers. I don’t think so but judge for yourself – side 1 – side 2. I took it all in karmic stride –
I needed a break and hey it is the end of August.
At BarCamp I got to present about XRI/XDI, I-names, Identity Commons etc.
Durring the break using my OS9iMac I tuned into PlanetIdentity with the aggregator down I can still read all the happening stuff. I found a great post by Doc about metaphors again that shape our view of the web. Identity maps differently in the different metaphors. It seems that the highly social nature is left out where it is a coffee shop that we meet and talk with friends in. This is where identity beings it seems and is perhaps the closest neighbor to the theater performance metaphor. I tune in to the coffee shop community perhaps because. Yesterday (at the time of writing) at the Institute for the Future – Future Commons conversation Howard Reingold performed a micro university 5 min lecture with 10 min of questions/discussion. It was on Coffee-houses and the social networks that emerged from them creating the shape of our modern world through the social innovation that occurred in them. The insurance industry (Loydes of London), scientific societies (The Royal Society), stock exchanges (London) all emerged out of coffee houses of the day.
How can we support people in communities knowing their place better and interacting in more meaningful. Doc highlights the two middle metaphors where free speech and free enterprise happen.

Beyond Identity Theft – Location Theft

Kaliya Young · August 21, 2005 · Leave a Comment

Ross Mayfield posits at barcamp there could be a phenomena called location theft.
When talking about this and he shared that this would apparently this already happens with DodgeBall in NYC. The founders of the company would do that so that they would not get swarmed
Poking around I found reference to it but with a different meaning.
Identity Theft Protection from ReliaCredit.

One of the best ways to protect against identity theft is to monitor your protection report. By signing up with a credit monitoring service you will be advised whenever anyone obtains access to you protection report or when new accounts are opened, this provides substantial location theft protection. Any unusual activity or the opening of new accounts or other unauthorized protection inquiries will, raise a red flag and allow you to contact a creditor or other law enforcement agency to stop or prevent any ongoing fraud. Identity theft is a criminal act punishable under federal or state law.

Hunting for the Glory of God

Hunting unto the glory of God also demands that we must have a high measure of ethics. Ethics goes beyond the written hunting regulations. It may be legal, but is it ethical? Hunting on public land gives you the legal right to set your hunting stand wherever you desire. Is it ethical to set your stand at a location you have heard about, where another hunter claims he has seen deer? Unfortunately, I have witnessed what I would call location theft. If we are going to hunt unto the glory of God, we must ask God to grant us a greater understanding of ethical conduct and to practice His ethics.

People like Gnomdex so there is BAR Camp

Kaliya Young · August 19, 2005 · Leave a Comment

From Marc Canter

Doc and I are doing a panel on the ‘OpenWeb’ so I hope folks come or at least tune-in via webcast or IRC. But the AO conference WILL be propogated by VCs and rich people – and I prefer hanging out with normal people the best.
That’s why I love Gnomedex. I sure hope there’s another one – soon – like at the end of September.

I found this in my list of saved but not posted blog posts. Seems like Marc’s wish is going to come true – BAR Camp is this weekend. I just found out about it from Eugene Kim’s blog (he has been posting some great stuff this past week about wikimania and collaboration patterns). Likely I will go down with Mary and share the demo of i-names sso working on wordpress that I did at DrupalCon in Porland two weeks ago.
