Summary<\/span><\/h2>\n

The web ponders moving further towards SSL, with the W3C TAG publishing a draft finding<\/a> on how this could be more easily achieved.\u00a0 There was a great review<\/a> by the EFF on progress, as well as some interesting suggestions by timbl<\/a>.<\/p>\n

Linked data continues it’s inexorable march towards the mainstream with steady progress throughout the quarter and whole year.\u00a0 Some good reviews are available here<\/a>, here<\/a>, and here<\/a>.\u00a0 With a look forward to what we may see in 2015<\/a>.\u00a0 A cool ontology viewer called VOWL<\/a> also caught the eye.<\/p>\n

There were some more discussion regarding the HTTP PATCH<\/a> verb and how it applies to data, with specs and implementations reaching readiness.\u00a0 A comprehensive wishlist covering much of the future of LDP and RWW was posted<\/a> by Sandro, as well as a new authentication system, called SPOT<\/a> (Simple Page-Owner Token).<\/p>\n

\"\"<\/p>\n

Communications and Outreach<\/span><\/h3>\n

Henry Story delivered an outstanding presentation<\/a> at Scala eXchange conference in London, where he outlined the current state of play of the read write web and decentralized social web.\u00a0 An overview<\/a> of the project is available on github, as well as source code<\/a>.<\/p>\n

Some conversations took place in the identity credentials group and open badges<\/a>\u00a0 which aims to allow writing of achievements, via badges, on servers, in images and data structures, and using digital signatures.<\/p>\n

 <\/p>\n

\"\"<\/a><\/p>\n

Community Group<\/span><\/h3>\n

The LDP Patch specification<\/a> is now reaching readiness and I believe the integration into GOLD<\/a> is going to happen as we speak. GOLD has also now integrated JSON LD.<\/p>\n

Community group has added a slack<\/a> instance, which allows slightly more realtime chat, an API and many other features.<\/p>\n

A stub wiki page has been added on the concept of “nanotations<\/a>“, linking to Kingley’s blog<\/a> explanation, feel free to add your own examples!<\/p>\n

\"\"<\/p>\n

Applications<\/span><\/h3>\n

Some initial work has started on intelligent personal assistants<\/a>.\u00a0 Juergen has written a sioc bot which is able to take real time conversations and convert them to linked data<\/a>.\u00a0 Leveraging adapters in hubot the code is available on git and was up and running in just a couple of days.<\/p>\n

I’ve also been working on a linked data robot<\/a> that allows simple transfer of credit (aka marking) from one URI to another.\u00a0 The hope is to build out a linked data based transfer and reputation system.\u00a0 A slightly related side project I’ve started is virtual wallet<\/a>, which will allow holding of web currencies and transfer between WebIDs, much more standards work to be done here…<\/p>\n

 <\/p>\n

\"\"<\/p>\n

Last but not Least…
\n<\/span><\/h3>\n

An interesting system called webhose<\/a> has been launched.\u00a0 “The Webhose.io API – Easily integrate data from hundreds of thousands of global online sources: message boards & forums, blogs, comments, reviews, news and more”.\u00a0 Seems like a neat bridge to pull into your apps news from many web2.0 data sources!<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
