Thoughts and ideas of a dyslexic designer/developer
Diagrams can be so much more powerful and easier to understand that words. So here's a diagram which explains the jabbering post I wrote a little while ago. Please note I'm not saying this is exclusive to dance music, I'm sure it happens across many other different types of music genres. I'm just using dance music as a example.
I just found this trailer while on my travels around the internet. Its a trailer for A Complete History of My Sexual Failures which I had the joy/miss comfort of watching again. Once again if you've not seen this film, go out and find it. Its one of the most freaky good and bad experiences you can have.
There's been lots of talk about this new service, which to be clear isn't a google killer. Its not even a search engine its computable knowledge engine, which aggregates knowledge from data around the web and tries to make sense of it then relays the knowledge back to the user. For me Google returns Information while Wolfram Alpha returns Knowledge.
Wolfram|Alpha's long-term goal is to make all systematic knowledge immediately computable and accessible to everyone. We aim to collect and curate all objective data; implement every known model, method, and algorithm; and make it possible to compute whatever can be computed about anything. Our goal is to build on the achievements of science and other systematizations of knowledge to provide a single source that can be relied on by everyone for definitive answers to factual queries.
I do wish it had results you could copy and a API or even a feed for results, I mean check out the results for redbull. Sweet but none of the information is actually in text. You can download a PDF but to be honest that's not much use. So technically amazing but the experience needs a lot of tweaking. Step in the direction of the Semantic web? Maybe, maybe not.
