The audience of the survey is non-W3C member. mischat, listening for 10 seconds I heard sound from the following: hhalpin (4%) or surveying businesses which are NOT currently part of W3C DKA: if we want to do survey, it makes sense to use the W3C tool It's a survey of *non*-members ... but beyond the WG, another tool would be easier yes, makes sense yes, makes sense to me. I use surey gizmo WBS has capability for public questionnaires, AFAIK surveygizmo.com are we intending to send these surveys to end users or to service providers ? zakim, unmute me cperey should no longer be muted * hhalpin looks nice Christine: I use surveygizmo, it's free, lots of reporting capabilities sounds like an endorsement to me ... very flexible Another one Techcrunch seems to be using: Polldaddy.com Since Christine is probably going to taking the lead on the survey, then I'd say survey gizmo is right. ah hah! :) PROPOSED RESOLUTION: We'll use internal WBS tool for internal W3C polls, we'll use some tbd external system (e.g. surveymonkey, surveygizmo) to do external surveys.

Maybe that should be the beginning of a user story - i.e. why don't we have the same information available whether mobile or otherwise? quality of data seems ambiguous to me? ... conditions in which the network is accessed i think the possible preconditions might be enumerated ff 3.5 gives geolocation hehe context could be "I'm in call" that's probably something that phone (device) knows but a PC does not DKA: it's becoming an increasingly fuzzy distinction you can be on a call on skype your PC could know that but isn't it our responsiblity to clarify its defnition? * danbri is in ascii today only now, sorry * Zakim hears +0122333aacc's hand up * Zakim sees +0122333aacc, tpa on the speaker queue ... we should have something in the template haha! who is speaking? :) ?

LRDD Update (Resource Descriptor Discovery) they are they used in OAuth endpoints ..how relevant to SWXG? HTTP and HTML. Link Headers and Link elements in HTML. hhalpin: we need a standardised way to discover info about someone on the web it is used in Oauth and in openid, as far as i am aware Mischa - what's your opinion of XRD-Simple implementations? I can report on this XRDS is in OpenID 2, but not 1.x. XRD/XRDS-Simple is not. Kaliya?: XRDS is part of OpenID spec * DKA thinks that was kaliya. agree 100% excellent some quick overview: http://www.hueniverse.com/hueniverse/2009/03/the-discovery-protocol-stack.html and the internet draft: http://tools.ietf.org/html/draft-hammer-discovery-03 privacy jungle +1 DKA, re opera people ... yes once we send a formal invite... should i just invite an agenda topic and invite them? ie. it's agreed in principle and definite interest move ahead go Soren/Joseph but they want to see exact topics before deciding who to send and when ACTION: hhalpin to contact eran to talk, also about LRDD. * trackbot noticed an ACTION. Trying to create it. Created ACTION-50 - Contact eran to talk, also about LRDD. [on Harry Halpin - due 2009-07-08]. danbri - I just thought Eran could explain hook up between LRDD and XRD/XRD-Simple +1 DKA: we need to articulate why openness is good for social network business good for businesses +1 :) sure. am talking re opera action only Since he is already actively seeking comments on it. ... I'd like to take the resolution that we will work on that Oh, I thought opera action was based on w3c widgets/open social compatibility yes I've posted to the mailing list ... if we want to convince people of the relevance of the work and also bring industry people to the group Michael Hausenblas (DERI) is also pretty interested/informed on LRDD/XRD/etc. it would be nice if there was work item which is focusing on why good for business Topic: Privacy Jungle -mattroweshow http://preibusch.de/publications/social_networks/privacy_jungle_dataset.htm agree... soren: if we look at alexa, it's unclear if it's social networking sites blogging service is that a socialnetwork? soren: stripped it down to 45 sites, got rid of site not in English as we can't discover then. i dont we why not, you have trackbacks I agree with this premise 100% s/we/see/ Soren: only sites where you can make friends on the site http://jcmc.indiana.edu/vol13/issue1/boyd.ellison.html -kaliya IMHO, the paper is very impressive +1 rreck social networking platforms= white label social networking servers quick question - why exclude content-sharing sites like Flickr? +1 rreck too user counts unreliable Joseph: some sites that claim to be "leading" sites are not good question hhalpin I wonder if Joe and Soren are on the IRC maybe not. it doesnt seem like they are i hadnt even thought of that Joseph: statistical data about social networks given to advertisers seems more reliable than data given in press releases and to general public. ... categories for the sites: languages, metadata, data collected, privacy controls offered to users ... key aspects of privacy policy of the sites "advertise on us" links or sites put through "advertising networks" ZZZ: how did you access this info? (number of users...) Joseph: fact sheets or surveys *** Signoff: danbri (Quit: danbri) +kaliya Joseph: we could have included flickr ... their main use cases is vacation pictures to be shared with friends ... you can consider a site to be a SN depending on how people use it ... it's hard to draw a line and there could be more user populations on any service Joseph: the research in privacy is not new, and the lock-in effect has existed before ... e.g. Amazon ... in SN it's worse because there are all your friends and they would not follow you if you change Hopefully you'd just lose your links to your friends - you wouldn't actually lose all your friends. agree with this definition of lock-in effects of services ... Users can't take data to another network Joseph: sites do not promote privacy as an argument on the front page +1 on that this is a problem +1 for sure +1 * caribou does not scribe spanish zakim, who is making noise I don't understand 'who is making noise', mischat problem but the user education is not there i think they are pandering to the lowest common denominator I think "privacy as an argument on the front page" will chase some users away Joseph: it's not that it is not mentioned at all. You can still dig up a privacy policy ... they claim how good their practices are i think Soren is speaking now ... sites communicate on privacy depending on the targeted audience i think this means ->privacy doesnt sell :) q+ * Zakim sees +0122333aacc, tpa, mischat on the speaker queue q- * Zakim sees +0122333aacc, mischat on the speaker queue zakim, unmute me mischat was not muted, mischat this was very useful stuff I think we should keep going but people can leave... q+ * Zakim sees +0122333aacc, mischat, hhalpin on the speaker queue ack 012 * Zakim sees +0122333aacc, mischat, hhalpin on the speaker queue ack +0123 * Zakim sees +0122333aacc, mischat, hhalpin on the speaker queue ack aacc * Zakim sees +0122333aacc, mischat, hhalpin on the speaker queue great question ack barf Mischa: did you study what happens when you delete info from the sites? ... e.g. if data is really removed? Joseph: most sites don't claim they will remove the data ... some sites do it partially, but most sites don't make any claim how does Joe conduct this research? Mischa: EU regulations? govt regulations? maybe jump on the question queue cperey * DKA actually has to leave the call unfortunately but I will hold the chairing batton to Harry for the overtime session.

Joseph: No. The "content delivery network" is under their control, they have the master copy, but the rest is unknown ... once a photo has been seen in the UK from the akamai, there's local caching ... it's a huge grey area legally Joseph: the larger sites are the tip of the iceberg in privacy practices ... the smaller sites often started with bad privacy Zakim, ack hhalpin I see +0122333aacc, mischat on the speaker queue Zakim, ack aacc I see +0122333aacc, mischat on the speaker queue zakim, mute me mischat should now be muted q- * Zakim sees +0122333aacc on the speaker queue been interesting, very good work, we should build on this.

P3P hasn't taken off. beleives Lorry Cranor did a lot on that subject indeed when working on P3P Soren: P3P was designed to communicate privacy policies, but less than 10% of the sites implement P3P ... and some are doing it wrong harry: is it doable to present a human-readable privacy policy? Soren: several projects going this way POWDER might be good if you would like to state which are the privacy policies adopted by a given set of resources. ... it's worth investigating ... also somewhere where W3C could step in Harry: I'm interested in links to these projects? Soren: I will try to put something together Perhaps a cut-down dialect of P3P in RDFa might increase update?
