| I attended http://semantic-mediawiki.org/wiki/Spring_2010_SMWCon at the MIT CSAIL Lab in sunny Boston and microblogged (on Twitter) comments on most sessions; my talk is at [[Encouraging Semantic Mediawiki use with non technical people]].

| | | [[Category:Tags]] |
| == State of the software - Yaron Koren ==
| |
| | |
| * First challenge for smw: visibility
| |
| * Second challenge for smw: communication ... duplicate effort
| |
| * "no brick walls separating users from developers," everyone welcome to contribute
| |
| * Third challenge, less important, funding ... too much money can hurt a project
| |
| * "Semantic" is an abused word, use alternatives.. platform.. bur semantic will be the breakthrough?
| |
| | |
| == Welcome address - David Karger ==
| |
| | |
| * @karger - many tools are wrong, developers 'guessing' - smw lets users emerge their data/structure, see more tools like smw
| |
| * Philip of @Ontoprise plan fine access controls; rich editor w annotations, queries; social/dashboard; wikibooks; facet browse, rules
| |
| | |
| == Halo: Current status and future developments in 2010 - Philipp Zaltenbach ==
| |
| | |
| * @Ontoprise dev'ing linked open data #LOD between sites — integrate DBPedia (WP), etc; q about dependencies on their proprietary sw
| |
| * side skype chat discussing problems with rich text editors that mangle output, same problem for many systems
| |
| | |
| == Mashup of LexWiki and WebProtege for collaborative ontology authoring - Guoqian Jiang ==
| |
| | |
| * Guoqian Jiang @MayoClinic Lexwiki collab ontology dev ('propose' tab), curate, integrity; SMW to scale/distrib experts, hierch probs
| |
| | |
| | |
| ==The Unbearable Lightness of Wiking - A Study of SMW Usability - Jie Bao ==
| |
| * Jie Bao SMW usability (map.rpi.edu, data.gov) UI trumps low level abilities; forms limited; page model restrictive; devs prefer dev
| |
| * RDF model 'deeply right' for flexbl DB. Fixes: small cadre dev semantics, most use; inline triples; support mult POV; SMW != RDF
| |
| | |
| == Applying SMW on the Wikia environment - Timothy Quievryn ==
| |
| * Timothy Quievryn SMW impact on @wikia (mostly entertainment); Forms great advance, biggest wikis use it; soon all, dynamic games?
| |
| | |
| == # WikiTags: Connecting SMW with MS Office users - Jesse Wang ==
| |
| * Jesse Wang connects SMW to MS Office for user workflow, usability: uses MS SMartTags. Browse values, easy Outlook export nonfree
| |
| | |
| == Flexible, purposive SMW use - Clarence Dillon ==
| |
| * Clarence Dillon @DeptofDefense Flexible, purposive SMW use: mil takes 5 years to roll out; hesitate to collab.
| |
| * "Power corrupts; PowerPoint corrupts absolutely"
| |
| * simpler comm model for mil w SMW. huge money/time savings. spread via peer pressure. organic, private wikis, gov2gov, triage, social
| |
| * social networking critical. remote data, vocabularies. encouraging not using Office at all, directly in wiki. wikipatterns
| |
| * avoid noisy data w forms, "nobody above Major/above 35 uses it" (with exceptions) intel. comm. "learn to collab or lose job"
| |
| | |
| ==SIMILE, Exhibit, Wibit, Datapress, and Dido - David Karger ==
| |
| * @karger SIMILE, Exhibit, Dido: structured data in embedded novel interfaces for everyone in author society — lenses, views, facets
| |
| * @karger "You only need one person to be interested in something for it to show up on the Web" [http://shawnday.com/drink.html Ontario breweries 1914-1915]
| |
| * online course catalog in 4 days, took 6 months to get data from registrar; easy reuse data; datapress embed in wordpress cross site
| |
| * Dido inline view/data editor — no need to learn schemas, "Make the data look the way you want" separate representation from backend
| |
| | |
| ==The future of Semantic Forms - Yaron Koren ==
| |
| * Yaron Koren @wikiworks Next steps for Semantic Forms better integrated; easier SMW class maint; sep model/view, device UIs; use XML?
| |
| * wiki markup vs xml, issues moving away from wiki model to create richer, simpler UIs, markup too complicated: a crossroads
| |
| | |
| ==Handling n-ary data - Yaron Koren ==
| |
| * No great answers for n-ary data in SMW — no rich page editing, problems with page model?
