Re: [FRIAM] Delicious Alternative
Yes, I've been noticing this since the early days, how quickly TB-Ls vision was inverted... the home page becoming the external face of the person/institution/product, not the internal view of what is important... I still see vestiges of the original in early adopters whose personal page(s) read like a set of bookmarks to all the stuff they care about, when if done well is not a bad view for an outsider... not unlike sorting out a new acquaintance by the books in their bookshelf the first time you visit their home/office. I do not use things like delicio.us myself, but do appreciate those who do (and share it with me). I tend to skip over this one-to-many sharing and seek to get a many-many (several-several?) thing going with setting up wiki pages. Unfortunately, this has not worked out well either. H... You-all do realize that function was the original intent for a home page?

But that is the irony of cloud book-marking sites - they essentially provide a home-page in the original sense. The services make it a lot easier to maintain the home-page - although I found HTML 1.0 was easy enough to edit. I still see vestiges of the original in early adopters whose personal page(s) read like a set of bookmarks to all the stuff they care about, when if done well is not a bad view for an outsider... not unlike sorting out a new acquaintance by the books in their bookshelf the first time you visit their home/office. The original mechanism was the basis of Google's search engine algorithm. Fortunately for Google, they don't have to rely upon real home-pages since there are so many web-sites with so many web-pages to support the number of in-links, out-links, and clustering coefficient. The Google algorithm has changed a lot, along with the web. I do not use things like delicio.us myself, but do appreciate those who do (and share it with me). I tend to skip over this one-to-many sharing and seek to get a many-many (several-several?) thing going with setting up wiki pages. Unfortunately, this has not worked out well either. H... My problem with wikis is that they are only approachable through the web. The data is stored in a database and is difficult to extract for anything other than the wiki. Wikis are, in effect, single media systems.
