Share is an experiment in designing a networked programming tool for distributed communities of practice.
It is an IDE that automatically shares all the code you write with everyone else that is using Share, as well as keeping track of how that code is used. Allowing you to see the network that grows around code you contribute, borrow, or just happen to be interested in. As you write code in share the software periodically syncs with a server to upload your sketches as well as download other users sketches to your hard drive. This allows you to browse through other people's code and borrow things that you think may be helpful to your project. As you do this share tracks the copy-pasting of code, allowing you to see where code you contribute may go and how it is used, and also allowing you to browse the repository of code based on the relationships between code and the people who wrote it. Share also include ways of creating references to projects even if no code actually moves. Share also integrates a processing run time allowing you to compile and run sketches directly from the tool. While share itself is language agnostic our current experiment focuses on processing. http://share.media.mit.edu/ -- Olga http://www.ungravitational.net http://virtualfirefly.wordpress.com _______________________________________________ NetBehaviour mailing list [email protected] http://www.netbehaviour.org/mailman/listinfo/netbehaviour
