Today we published 2 new pages on the Electronest website:
Electronest Aggregated and Electronic Presence.
Both are resulting from frustration; Electronest Aggregated allow visitors to have a more global perception of our different website (there’s still tons of work to be done to make the experience smoother). Electronic Presence will be used as a ressource page on the concept of Electronic Presence.

A very interresting set of radio show on BBC about the creation of CERN; CERN happens to be also the place where World Wide Web has been invented, incidentally when one of the laboratory needed to access informations dispatched on many different computers - from then Gopher quickly got replaced. History will ever remember Sir Tim Berners Lee. It quickly has been legally declared Public Domain - CERN could then not claim ownership but nobody else either.
There’s a very nice part of it which summarize quite perfectly the generosity behind the open source, and its root one can still find in the Science community.
I quite love this quote: Francis Farley
This [the Internet] usefull thing was a totally unexpected byproduct; you cannot plan the usefull part of science. What you can only do is to support the right guys let them do what they think is important - and out of that will come usefull applications

Codename Nemo
It’s a new way of managing files. Or rather not manage files. Currently it’s a cross between a calendar and a file browser with labels. It’s a free/open source GTK application written in C#.

the aim of this project is to have a look at statistic generated by access on the server disk space, trying to decrypt the beauty of these lines of codes representing the activity of my electronic presence, i attended to use them as what they are: raw data, to generate different way of representing these activities.
the continuation of this project took place under a new name: «electronic presence».

Currently under development, AGS should provide combined with some url rewrite rules (.htaccess) a kind of search box but directly in the url. By using the semantic CMS on the back-end, with a specific element called so far ‘url’ and pre-published (not publicly visible), the administrator has the possibility to influence the guessing system.

We developed a specific software for the performance - its aims was to aggregate content from news site and to display in realtime the resulting words on the screens. The display/design/setting of these words was directly generated by various parameters related to the music played by the dj.

timetable / organisation of the articles on a timeline basis; the days are organized horizontally.
possible development: interface: a topbar, with a representation of the whole space (map), used for scrolling the window’s space. list of days: show/hide, load earlier reblogs. tags list: filter the content on the page. trends per day: use the tags to define the keywords for one day, or a couple of days.

and testing…
flock is a really nice browser, based on firefox and incorporating the tools to publish and read online - it integrates also perfectly with del.icio.us. Looks like it’s really close to some of my thoughts around the info_hub project…

ranking the tags
these series of experiments around ranking give a simple overview of the traffic related to the r-echos articles. It gives insight on trends and zeitgeist.
the main issue with this techniques is that it gives only the most accessed clues, which produce an information-rich model.
What would be the next steps:
1/ the less accessed articles and tags - what is the less trendy? is there a rare pearl in there?
2/ the favorites - there are always a few websites in the whole that interrests me a bit more
3/ the weight of a tag - the more articles are defined by a keyword should affect the whole system
4/ the weight of an article - …
3 and 4, at first sight, are based on an information-rich model as well; however the datas generated by this bias could be used in a different way
update:
solution 3/: (beta) each time an article is defined by a keyword, this keyword get one point. 10 most accessed tags via articles
