My ticket was sponsored by The Bean Machine.Friday was the last day of this next web. In this post I'll be discussing the talks of Bradley Horowitz, Jim Stolze, Eric Meijer and Michael J. Brown.Bradley HorowitzBradley Horiwitz's background is in technology. He is currently employed at Google and responsible for its apps. Google's main philosophy is: think big, change the world as we know it. But as an advise to startups: if you ain't got nothing, you've nothing to loose (Bob Dylan). Attention is limited, so there, computers can be of help. One thing is to use all types of context parameters when you're recording data. A photo taken in the time that I was on holiday in Scotland, is probably made in Scotland (made up example by ed.). Bradley pleads for not neglecting the power of wetware, humans. Take advantage of what humans do, e.g. click through, interactions, tagging. Main point: try to solve the problems we have tomorrow, look forward, like those guys wh…
My ticket was sponsored by The Bean Machine.In this post summaries of different talks at The Next Web. Read more about the future of search, what Google would do, what Andrew Keen is thinking about the read/write web, what Matt Mullenberg, of Worpress, thinks about how the web should work and finally how well Andrew Keen and Chris Sacca get along.Future of searchCool presentation. Moving towards the semantic web, but acknowledging that most of the data is still not as well structured as one would hope. Search however is just a way to get a problem solved, it should not be a goal in itself. Presenter is proposing that search engines should move into task completion assistants (interpretated, e.d.). Neat idea. Lack of real time search is ridiculized by Hermione, but real time isn't important for everything in this world of course. Want to check it out: sandbox.yahoo.com.What would google do?Decomposing Google to its essence, their business ethic/way of working….
My TNW-ticket was sponsored by The Bean Machine, the company I'm working for. Thank you!Here are my reviews of the rising suns (will be updated after hopefully each session):Best:Prezi cool new way of making presentations, really visual, spatial… innovative. Most of the other apps were slight improvements (and too much based on web as we know thinking) or reuses of existing ideas (possibly applied to a different domain). So my vote goes to Prezi.Runner ups:Mendeley A tool for researchers, helping to orchanize papers. But they have added a social component, trying to become the last.fm for musicians. There have been others before that tried adding social components to online paper cataloging services, but this one seems actually to work (whereas the others don't). Bit boring topic, but think this is really useful!yunoo cool finance app, but does require you to upload quite a lot (or possibly even to enter yourself)… but recommendations on how to save …
Note: My ticket was sponsered by The Bean Machine I'm working for. Thank you!SoundCloudThe best talk of the day. Free is not important. Its about the bulb, not about the light. What happens around something is interesting. Any sufficiently interesting content is indistinguishable from cnotent. Kelly defines things that add value to something free. Context can 'make' (or the lack of context can probably break, ed.) the music. Relevance is defining the personal quality of music. The block buster approach doesn't work as well anymore. New schemes of music publishing arise. Use other people to help and promote your music, involve users in creation. Build relationships. Allow them, at a premium price, get additional material (e.g. multitrack version). SoundCloud makes it more accessible.3voor12Cool concept from 3voor12: FIY, film it yourself. Concert registrations done by combining video recordings from many.iMeemChaotic talk. API's, talk about the product, all mi…
