The question is not ‘Is a picture worth a thousand words?’, but
‘Does a given picture convey the same thousand words to all viewers?’

I have seen – there are a lot of interesting talks in the newthinking store in Berlin Mitte

  • Erste Schritte mit LaTeX (2008-01-29, 2008-02-05)
  • IT im Auswärtigen Amt (2008-01-30)

and in the Kalkscheune

  • Richard Stallman (2008-02-18)

See you there.

I’ve just listened to a talk about the DBpedia Relationship Finder and ask myself whether the project Six degrees of Wikipedia is still active. It’s a pitty – it is not (… at least the links server). The algorithm is not the same but it does a good job. Six degrees evaluates the every link in the page and creates an untyped association while DBpedia evaluates only the infoboxes in the sites and gathers also information about the association type (e.g. Johann Sebastian Bach was born in Eisenach and died in Leipzig).

The combination would be more interesting – to have more information – using all links – than DBpedia and to have better information quality – using the info boxes – than Six degrees.

Using The Force (which has recently emerged from the Blue Shirt Studio) you now are able to script the forces Luke has already used a long time ago in a galaxy far, far away….

Big Apple

When you have spare time and decide to do something with a book (That’s like an analog webpage, for the neuronauts among us), how often do you turn to a computer related book? How often has it happened in the last year?

It’s a nice explanation the word “book”. – But what do people who need this description with-out a computer. They may need a description for the word analog too. For convenience – this is provided here.
