has a decent list of web 2.0 apps that are in “beta” status. Includes all services I am on. If you want to enter your e-mail address and your friends to another x services, this is the place to go.
Look also in the weblog, where the author writes some interesting lists of alphas, etc.
Checkout http://isolatr.com/, who are bad bad contra-revolutionists of the web 2.0 revolution. They clearly missed the picture, or perhaps they are already web 3.0 or web 2.1 or something arcane.

A draft has been published of RDF/A.
This is a really simple way to embed RDF into html. Example:
<html> <head> <title>Jo Lambda's Home Page</title> </head> <body> <p> Hello. This is <span property="foaf:name">Jo Lambda</span>'s home page. <h2>Work</h2> If you want to contact me at work, you can either <a rel="foaf:mbox" href="mailto:jo.lambda@example.org">email me</a>, or call <span property="foaf:phone">+1 777 888 9999</span>. </p> </body> </html>
from W3C:
2006-03-14: The HTML Working Group and the Semantic Web Best Practices and Deployment Working Group jointly have published the First Public Working Draft of the RDF/A Primer 1.0. Produced by the groups’ RDF in XHTML Task Force, the draft is a companion to the XHTML 2.0 specification. This document introduces syntax for expressing RDF metadata within XHTML and explains the use of the XHTML metainformation modules. Read about the HTML Activity and the Semantic Web.
Sometimes I miss home, and I definitly missed this:
Soundfreaks desissify Vienna’s underground

Old research, still funny. Dr Daniel Simons of the University of Illinois and Dr Daniel Levin of Vanderbilt University created nice setups to trick humans, based on attention.
The setup they created is: tell somebody to watch this video of basketball players and to count, how often the white team has passed the ball.
the video:

At the end of the video,they ask: how often? And the (but don’t spoil this by telling it before): Did you notice the gorilla walking from right to left through the scene, banging on his chest?
Sonntag hatte ich noch eine Projektbesprechung in Hannover-Stadt. Zusammen mit unseren Projektpartnern sind wir, nach einer kurzen Odyssee durch verschiedene Lokale, endlich im richtigen gelandet: Lehner’s Wirtshaus in Hannover. Sieht übrigens im IE besser aus als im Firefox.
Some www.hardbloggingscientists.de visited the CeBit Freenet booth party, rocking there. Youtube this yourself:
Was macht das DFKI eigentlich? Wir sind ja etwa 300 Forscher, arbeiten an Forschungsprojekten, publizieren Papiere, generieren Ideen. Also eigentlich Grundlagenforschung und Angewandte Forschung die zu Spin-Offs und Produkten bei Partnern führt.
In einem Satz: Wir sind das DFKI und wir machen Auftragsforschung.
Auftragsforschung! Zuerst hier von Daniel Porta während der Mittagspause verwendet. Ein Wort das die richtigen Neuronen triggert, Endorphine für alle. Testen wir das Wort mal in verschiedenen Sätzen:
The human search engine: enter a question at google answers, set a price and wait until other humans answer the question.
You pay $0.50 per question plus an amount between $2 and $200. Selected researcher, selected by google, will then answer within 24 hours.
read the faq to find it out.
A human web-service, tickling my neurons, this thing.
