"Since Google's acquisition of Trendalyzer two years ago, we have been working on creating a new service that make lots of data instantly available for intuitive, visual exploration." - Michael R. Bernstein from Bookmarklet

I'm not sure why this would take two years. Google's pace of innovation is *really* slowing down. - Michael R. Bernstein

I keep meaning to post a blog entry about the bad experience I've had with OpenID lately. I used to be a proponent but now I'm no longer even really a fan. - Lindsay

In this episode we talk with Mike Kirkwood, Johannes Ernst and Chris Messina, all running for a community seat on the openid foundation board, about the foundation, their goals and the future and issues of OpenID. - Christian Scholz

Trent, Steve and myself are doing a new podcast around the topic of personal data portability. Feel free to subscribe! - Christian Scholz

The entire discussion about business-model constraints that might apply to my recent idea for a brand new medium and content industry. - Michael R. Bernstein from Bookmarklet

"I blogged about my thoughts to have a more holistic solution approach to solve the comment-aggregation issue based on OpenID. Would love to get your feedback on my thoughts! - You (edit | delete)" - Sebastian Küpers

"blogged about the thought if it wouldn't make sense to enable OpenSocial to work in an distributed environment? Why not adding apps on my profile, which I have on my DiSo enabled Wordpress blog?" - Sebastian Küpers

Yes Elias, good idea! Thanks for telling me about that - directeur from NoiseRiver

As soon we will reach the point at which we will have a real data portability and a technology which decouple us from specific platforms - because my data, social network information etc. will be updated in real-time independently from the service I use - we will see a renaissance of awesome interfaces. - Sebastian Küpers

Who's supplying the data? How would it be done? How secure would it be? - Franklin Naval

tbh - I can't answer you those questions - ask the guys who are all working on the data portability side - this post more points out, what could happen, if we have this situation - in the end I think the data side will be much more user-centric. - Sebastian Küpers

quote: "I have talked recently to quite a few makers of virtual worlds and most of them don’t have the topic “data portability” really on their agenda, yet. A few of them even see it as a big threat to their business model. But let me explain, why they should care about data portability from the very beginning." - Sebastian Küpers

Geez - what an awesome post ;) - Elias Bizannes

Exactly Mike! You won't believe me, but someone today here on FriendFeed just wished to have an APML profile on FriendFeed to block everything related to APML... :) - directeur
