Are we reaching the limits of the social web? Ideas for the future of the web
Since I launched the development of http://faveeo.com I had a lot of time to think about the evolution of our main area of work: the social web. The limits of social networks become increasingly obvious as they try to become really mainstream, and are now moving to replace the search engines to become the new source of information on the web, based on the idea that users want to get information that is « approved » and recommended by their friends.
New social media model : automating the social graph with faveeo.com
We often hear that the new social media will be based on relationships between users and their « friends » and "interests" networks.
The new social media should give us better information as the information would not be provided by insensitive and cold computer systems, but through our network of friends whose direct filters would become our window to the world.
Why search engine don't really want to remove all the spam from their results
We live in an era that is so much based on information that it seems there is no way the society will eventually reduce it's production of « information » would it be completely worthless or not. The internet in it's actual form has become a completely unmanaged blurb of « equal » information without any good way to actually classify and organize the contents of that blurb, on a "quality" basis, not on the supposed "meaning" of the page.
Web 3.0 service : what is faveeo.com and why would anyone care?
Faveeo is a community-oriented social content recommendation system that will help users around the world easily access the real time pulse of their community. The idea of faveeo.com is to observe and analyse interactions between users and the aggregated content regarding their community to then be able to automatically organize information so that anyone can see what matters most to a certain community.
Introducing faveeo.com, our web squared application!
Hello all, it's a great day for us today, as it's the first official day of existence of the faveeo.com projet outside of the private circle that has been building with me this site.
We just launched a grant proposal at the Knight Foundation News Challenge (http://bit.ly/4mLkOh) and we would really love to have feedback on our proposal from the Web community!
