Bruce’s keynote at etech – was awesome – here are the highlight new words for us to use to think about emerging technology.
Spime – trackable space and time
They are virtual objects first and actual objects second
We can engage with objects better throughout lifecycle.
We won’t have to track our own inventory in our heads – it will be all catalogued and searchable. Where are my shoes – I will just google them.
Spime is a verbal framing device – verbal pointer because I need single sylable noun to call attention to it.
A ‘theory object” passed around it is a concept that is acreating attention.
It has links and attention, website, FAQ – flash – DB and “user centric graphic web abs”
Bruce of course interject that he is a writer and likes Black ink on white paper – so I hates “all this stuff”
ThingLInk (unique idenfiers)
Can be put everywhere – [ it sounded a lot like XRI]
Blodjects – weblog objects that evoke discssion.
