Looks like a very useful little browser tool. Pity I am using Chrome. Hm, perhaps time to switch?
brilliant post about a sad development

Needlebase was one of the most accessible of a class of tools that made data magic available to non developers. Magic.
-
There is too much information on the web for the human mind to understand it all, of course. The ability to draw sets of it together, to extract and sort it, and thus to discover new qualities about that which is described with the data, is humbling, it is a thing of contemporary existential beauty.

A web action is the interface and user experience of taking a specific discrete action, across the web, from one site to another site or application. They're not a specific technology but use a variety of technologies.
-
Web actions are not "just" hyperlinks. Hyperlinks are nouns and they reference destinations (sometimes with an explicit relation) with an implied action of navigation. In contrast, web actions are verbs and are first and foremost about a specific action that often but not always does something with the current page or site.

Makes sense. It's more to do with mental models and openness of mind, however some good points in the comments. I'd say, case not yet closed...
-
It concludes that while there are clear differences between older people and younger in their use of technology, there’s no evidence of a clear break between two separate populations.
-
On one side of the divide is the young person who uses technology like she drives her car, without the need for conscious attention to the process. On the other side sits a grizzled and mature individual, maybe a would-be ‘silver surfer’, frowning impotently at a keyboard and calling for his granddaughter.
"data are the oil of the 21st century" - pretty accurate. Don't agree with the rest, trust doesn't replace privacy. Privacy is an issue of autonomy, not related to trust but to independence and checks & balances on power that would take it away. Trust is often a way of describing situation where I have no choice but to accept something hoping my weaker position won't be abused. Not good enough. Scary stuff in fact as it seems to neglect individual empowerment, trading it in for elusive trust frameworks. Privacy can never go away as it's essential to one's identity.
-
Trust Frameworks offer a combination of contractual, policy, technology and governance mechanisms whereby a baseline criterion of privacy and sharing can be transparently and independently monitored and enforced. The role of governments is to set baseline performance metrics, and then have independent entities audit and enforce those criteria. Trust Frameworks will need to be internationally “interoperable” with respect to both technology and policy.

By making the individual the locus of control, there is the unexpected benefit to individuals and corporations alike to increase the flow and the economic value of data.

much confusion about terms, find the argument rather muddled. Publish means make it available online in a way that some audience can access it.Given that the cost of this is near zero, the crucial bit is distribution as it's possible to publish something and yet nobody ever reading it. Publishing as an industry is a whole different ballgame and confusing 'publishing' as an act of putting something in audience's way and 'Publishing' as an industry, doesn't help.
