Nytimes article about google:
It lists some competitors of Google. MSN is still trying to be a portal.Yahoo and Ask Jeeves, have tried to match the spartan simplicity of Google’s home page. Other companies are trying to offer Web surfers new ways to look at information. Vivisimo, for example, breaks down searches into clusters of categories. Tiny start-ups like Groxis and Kartoo organize information visually.

The Hundred year language:
“It’s important not just that the axioms be well chosen, but that there be few of them. Mathematicians have always felt this way about axioms– the fewer, the better– and I think they’re onto something.”

The Internet Topic Exchange
This is the first public implementation of the Ridiculously Easy Group Forming concept. It’s a central server to host TrackBack-powered channels. It’s designed to let anyone effortlessly create a channel to archive pointers to information on a given topic. Social Software is a channel in it.

Valdis Krebs
has a nice article on how to find Visualizing Communities of Interest via Purchase Patterns on the WWW. “One of the cardinal rules of human networks is “Birds of a feather flock together”. Friends of friends become friends, and coworkers of coworkers become colleagues. Dense clusters of connections emerge throughout the social space. The usual pattern found throughout social structures[and many other complex systems] is dense intra-connectivity within clusters with sparse inter-connectivity between clusters.”

Views of Content Management
Discussion boards, blogs, wikis, all are places where people talk about different topics. Putting stuff on the net leads to continued discussion later by some one else. The three of them have the same model, each of them is the view of that central model.
Discussion boards organize data by thread, date, author etc. But they don’t distinguish between the post and its comment. They are good in a question answer scenario.
Blogs arrange posts chronologically but always tend to link outward and don’t try to make sense of all the posts till now. The author of the blog is the one who has a mental model of all the posts. You have to read through all the posts to make sense of them. Blogs are good when used to maintain the history of events or maintain an archive.
Wikis link ideas to one another. A group of people creates a logical flow of information. The information is in context wrt to other info on the site. Wikis normally don’t have a place to comment. But any member of the group can modify and edit any page. It is useful to collaborate and maintain a set of ideas coherently.
