Liveblogging at Web2.0 Expo in Berlin
09.00 The organization at the Web2.0 Expo is excellent, as well as public transportation in Berlin. I am sure there are a lot of people living here, but they don’t bother each other too much! It is easy to get around and arrive in time where you want to. Little big things like a functional [...]

The broadcast will be also streamed, and downloadable from the radio’s website. I’ve also set up a skypecast, and a skypechat to go along with it. A [...]

Freebase merges the bottom up approach of the social web, with the hierarchies of directories, and the orderliness of traditional relational databases to help ‘organize the world’s knowledge’. (If that sounds familiar, it is because that is what Google is blindly about, with algorithms that are striving to see with barely formed eyes under heavy [...]
Sony’s PlayStation Home validates, and pushes Second Life model
