I wonder what happens in a realtime context...

from your blog: "a bit of analytic magic to tell me which of my friends I connect to the most and share the most with" -- couldn't agree more! we have lots to talk about then... :)

Recently, I was talking to someone from the Michigan Association of High School Principals who was raving about how much the entire organization relied on RSS. Anecdotal, but interesting to me.
A lot of the data portability standards have the potential to be hidden to the user with the right UI/UX. So maybe they'll get faster/wider adoption.

The psychology behind these new technologies is interesting. RSS was the last new consumer facing web technology. The take up of RSS has not yet gone mainstream, certainly from experience in the science community.

Hey Tony,
Yep, would be great to get some people together to discuss understanding real human relationships through the social graph.

+1 on human relationships. I'd like to get some people together to talk about the human side of the social graph.

Hi Rob, all the profile pages have hCard+XFN and also FOAF. Or you could check out this completely unsupported and barely thought out XML representation:

Hey Tony, is there any way you could make an XML representation of the user profile available? I'd like to be able to mash together a participant list in an alternate format (like one long page for printing.) Thanks--

CrowdVine needs friends-list portability!
I'm a big fan of having an ad-hoc social network surrounding an event like SGFoo (or any conference/workshop) where I can find out who I know that's coming and who I want to meet. But what's sorely needed is the ability to pull in my existing address book and automatically find all the people I already know, rather than having to wander around the site and re-find all the people I know. I bring this up since we'll presumably be talking about this... [read more]
Steve Ivy:
Also, what's with having to add urls? Did I not just give crowdvine my url? This is 2008, people, year of the hCard and rel=me. Maybe you've heard of it?
Steve Ivy:
Ok, maybe I harshed the buzz. Still.
Stephen Paul Weber:
Crowdvine could become the open analogous to Facebook groups.

Ironic
I don't want to bitch around, but isn't it funny, that Crowdvine is exactly the opposite of what we probably will talk about ag SG FooCamp? I mean: everyone attendig already at least has one URL where you can find information about her/him. Why can't we just use this to establish a contact relationship? I guess a lot of you are thinking alike, but I thought it might be worth the post...
Tony Stubblebine:
Wow, tough crowd. I'm happy for CrowdVine to be a strawman for discussion at the camp. But I'd be even happier if it helped people connect beforehand so that everyone had better face-to-face meetings, and if those meetings led to a furthering of data... [read more]
Dirk Olbertz:
I don't say, there isn't a use for some kind of group functionality, where people can gather around a specific topic and/or event. And I appreciate that you're supporting most of the data sharing standards. But still, I have to tell CrowdVine, who my... [read more]
Stephen Paul Weber:
@Stubblevine -- Right on the not great consumer. Consuming is tho important bit. hCards and XFN links are great, but someone has to be willing to READ them, and not just write.

The Point of CrowdVine
The reason I asked David if I could throw up a CrowdVine network is because I want to make it easier for people to meet and collaborate at the camp. I wanted to say that explicitly in case anyone thought I was pushing my vision of social networking (I'm much more interested in stealing your vision). A lot of people go to conferences for the lobby experience and then end up in socially awkward situations where they are in a crowd of strangers with... [read more]

Dopplr
I just added my trip to SGFoo to my Dopplr account. My account on Dopplr is http://www.dopplr.com/traveller/fallenpegasus Feel free to follow me. Dopplr gets so much so very much right. Good for them! They do friends discovery well on the sites it knows how to read (flickr and facebook, mainly). I'm hoping that our work at SG Foo will lead to the point where sites like Dopplr can "find my friends" at any other social network point I care to give ... [read more]
Tony Stubblebine:
Mark, thanks for pointing out the Dopplr implementation. We'll copy that.
Mark Atwood:
Possibly one approach to currently take, would be, instead of just having a few fixed number feeds for my crowdvine account, with the names "Blog", "Bookmarks", and "Photos", instead be able to have N of them, and be able to assign one of a large set... [read more]

I am looking forward to the event!
Working with big data sets often leads to working with lots of little data sets. That is why we have been working on network analysis tools for Excel. Over at:
http://research.microsoft.com/researc...
you can find early versions of C#UNG, a directed graph visualization tool ("C# Universal Network Graph") that plugs into Excel and provides some basic network analysis affordances.

Yes, we keep a record of the facebook user ID for everyone who adds the Facebook app. When we install the Facebook app in your profile, we use the API to ask for your Facebook friends, which are returned only as a list of IDs. We compare this internally to our record of others' IDs and present those to the user.
Most of our identity matching code is open sourced at http://identity-matcher.googlecode.com although I think the Facebook bit isn't in there as it's more intimately tied in to the rest of the Facebook code.

When Dopplr finds your friends on Facebook, how is it matching FB accounts with Dopplr accounts? Is it limited to people who also installed the Dopplr app? I suppose CrowdVine networks are small enough that we could match on name. Also, do you know of any open source reference implementations? If not, we'll release ours (too late for SG Foo though).

Marc, so glad you're coming. I saw you speak at Berkeley a year or so ago. Loved it. Would love to talk to you about social network analysis. You're probably doing stuff with massive data sets but if you want to play with highly connected niche networks I can probably share O'Reilly conference data (three Foo camps and Web 2.0 Berlin).

CrowdVine is *really* annoying me
I commented on Joseph Smarr's "blog" post and then an hour later it took 10 minutes of clicking to figure out what I had commented on. I think I like the idea of CrowdVine but the implementation is frustrating me. Most pages look very similar, and I feel like there's not enough context for me to figure out where to go next. Would love to chat with Tony sometime about it. Cheers.
Tony Stubblebine:
Steve, sorry to hear that. If you do want to chat about it, my AIM is tonystubblebine. And I'll be at the the Camp Friday/Saturday. Or we could hash it out right here in case other people are experiencing the same thing.
Steve Ivy:
Hi Tony, Man, I was in a bad mood yesterday! ;-) I do like the site overall. I was put off first by the lack of hCard import, but that's something we're pushing hard on the DiSo mailing list so it's been forefront on my mind. Then trying to remember ... [read more]

I'd second a talk on vertical/niche social networks and definitely attend something on social competition for self-improvement. Shelly here could probably talk about Reality All Stars as part of that.
