Enterprise 2.0 is now on RubyForge
It’s been a while, but Enterprise 2.0 finally has a place to call home and to showcase itself to the open-source community. Let the scrutiny of the open-source community begins!!!!
As you probably notice, the page still need some fat-trimming and polishing. That will be done overtime.
The blogging and social bookmarking part of it are functional. Each day I write the software with Ruby on Rails, each day my love for Rails grow. It’s such a simple framework to use, and has clear visibility on the components interacting with each other from the IDE instead of going through a bazillion xml configuration files. Long live, Rails!!!!
Now,,,,if only RubyForge would resolve my login issue quickly for me to check in my code before I accidentally poured coffee on my laptop and killed everything in it…*fingers crossed*
Maybe RubyForge can also let me run my blog engine on my site…..What better way to showcase than to let people actually play with it….:)
I checked out your project page. You differentiate between a tag and a bookmark and I was wondering what you thought was the difference between these two? Are they not both meta data describing a specific object (in this case a URL?)
Hi Ed,
del.icio.us is a good example of what I am trying to demonstrate in the project.
A bookmark itself is an model/object that can be saved by individuals. A tag is used to associate a semantic/meaning to it. You can associate multiple tags to the same bookmark, likewise multiple bookmarks to the same tag.
This allows users to self-organise their information for their personal use, which in return, provide a facade for other users to search for a particular piece of information in return.
For instance, by clicking on a tag called “Best Italian restaurant”, the URLs for what some users thought are the best italian restaurants will pop up. This in itself also promotes collaboration and sharing of information. With this self-organization, context/interest-relevant information on the internet can be searched more easily.
The idea of tagging form part of the process in building a semantic web on the internet.
Hope this answers your question.
