Nice view

Workshop

J&M Creations

Jan and I are browsing at a very interesting shop. Lots of cool gadgets. I
especially like the Jukebox. They also have some really cool bots.

Valentine's Day

Here I am at Sandcastle Studios looking over their new Valentine Pack. I
love the bear and the candies look yummy. Really awesome sculptie work,
here. I hope to see (and buy!) more of it.

Pteron

Music is very nice here. Very Ambient.

Calm peace here

King for Men

Getting some new threads at King for Men.

New Traffic Cone

I just go a new traffic cone from Jan and the Bletaverse folks. For the
longest time, we were beta testing the cone. I've been amazed about how
well the cone does its job. The traffic for my place sky rocketed. Thanks
to all my visitors. Without the cone, I'm fairly sure my little workshop
would just float around in obscurity!

Swwig

This is Swwig which is short for Semantic Web Workshop Intelligent Guide.
Swwig runs the ALICE program. Swwig is artificial intelligence in that he
can carry on a conversation with you. Basically you just start chatting
with Swwig asking questions. Swwig may ask you some questions, too!

Swwig is trainable and I'll begin to start teaching him everything I know
about the Semantic Web. We both are going to have alot of fun learning new
things!

Pandorabot

This is Digital DNA Probe on what I think is CSI's island. The probe has a
hook over to pandorabots.com and is therefore a Pandorabot. Pandorabots run
the A.L.I.C.E program. ALICE is based on AIML and is considered "artificial
intelligence" in that you can carry on a conversation with the bot.

I am investigating AIML use in Second Life. This looks very promising form
my work with the Semantic Web.

New Content

Showing off a little bit new content. You can follow me on Twitter.
http://twitter.com/slholmes - Got a link in the workshop now. Also I added
a new table of common logic symbols in the slide show. I'll try to post
more interesting things in the slide show as soon as possible.

New Bulletin Board

I put a new bulletin board in. A bit easier to use. But I still need a
product that lets you drop a note card in that other people besides the
owner can see. Let me know if you know of such a product. Needs to be LOW
Prim though.

SW Tutorial

Been working on the introduction to the Semantic Web tutorial during the
holiday season. Jan's been working hard on the next release of the tutorial
presentation system YourTutorial. It now allows tutorials to extend beyond
one page and supports Unicode.

Chanston and Jan are Visiting

Here at the workshop.

NASA Colab

I'm at NASA., searching around for software development ideas.

Christmas Time at the Workshop

Blatant promotional snapshot.

Skating

Learning to skate at my neighbors place. Very relaxing techno here.

Princeton

Very interesting architecture at "Diversity"

Your Tutorial

Jan came by my workshop yesterday. He's been working on a new release of
YourTutorial presentation system. The console screen looks fantastic now.
Some enhancements he made are:

* Scrolling pages (up/down arrows on the console)
* Support for Unicode - (note the IRI in the pic with Kanji chars)
* Larger font size.

These changes simplifies writing the tutorials somewhat. Before, trying to
squeeze intro material onto one page was difficult. Now I have the option
to go onto more detail if necessary.

Ever here

In the tattered slow days
Where time and place are trace
And corners smile remaking
A hundred thougts and armies

All is calm and forest
and slave and history take
In color bits of memory
In shadow rests our state
