Hi Davy

One of the first things that Matthew and Ian will be looking after in
the first week or so is clearing
the backlog of submitted prototypes and ideas.

Anyway. Thanks Davy for this... For everyone else It's a really quick
and neat use of the feeds for The Time When API (share stories of
memorable days in your life)
http://www.thetimewhen.co.uk/
Merged with Davy's excellent mood news prototype.

thetimewhen.co.uk/rss/ - now with added metadata (was RE: [backstage] The Time When - new feeds!)

2006-09-13 Thread Brendan Quinn
Title: The Time When - new feeds!



Hi everyone,

Thanks to Matt Hurst among others for commenting on the lack of metadata 
in thetimewhen.co.uk's RSS feed [1]. We needed a push.

Well we've got it now!Several types of metadata were added to the 
feeds yesterday.

We have added user tags as dc:subject elements, location tags as 
dcterms:spatial elements, and the actual date of the entry as 
dcterms:temporal.

The format of the tags is a little strange to the unititiated -- 
particularly the dcterms:temporal one, which conforms to the latest 
version of the dcterms RSS 1.0 module spec ([2]) by saying

 dcterms:temporalstart=1997-07-01; end=1997-07-01; 
scheme=W3C-DTF;/dcterms:temporal

Sorry but you'll have to parse the date out of that. 
We're not totally wedded to that format, and there is much debate in the RSS 
1.0/ RDF community as to which format is preferred. Even Tim himself 
weighed in to the discussion [3]! We'll let you know via Backstage if we change 
the format in the future.

dc:date will continue to represent the date that the 
entry was created, in keeping withevery other use of RSS. The Dublin Core 
standard says that dcterms:temporal [4] is the right place to store the date 
that the content is *about*.

Enjoy! Now let's see some SIMILE Timeline [5] 
implementations :-)

Please let us know what other kinds of feeds you 
would like to see on thetimewhen.co.uk, it's still only a trial and not a lot of 
work is being done on it, but if you can convince us that you would build some 
beautiful things if only you had the right data, I might be able to get 
something onto the work slate...

Happy hacking,

Brendan.

Re: [backstage] The Time When - new feeds!

2006-09-03 Thread Matthew Hurst
how come the feeds don't contain the location information (at least, I can't find it). Surely this would
be a big win for building applications on it.

Sorry for taking so long to reply to this thread. Thanks to Gordon,
Jonathan and Barry for the feedback.

The Mood Memories page now has the colour key present.

The main Mood News page has been updated too. It should be faster to
load and now uses no javascript. There are a few graphs and it is now
possible to see the stories that were rated 'don't know'. More
importantly the vocabulary database is much expand (over 350 words).

Have a good weekend,
Davy
