Autobiography 2.0: a 'person' microformat experiment on del.icio.us

the semantic web movement is 8 years old
and has delivered little more than
a microformat for business cards [Wiki]

and nothing to rank with
roget or lenat

so i'd like to propose
using del.icio.us for prototyping
much more ambitious
microformat-like linksets

starting eg with
prototype person-profiles
[Jorn Barger]

replacing pagetitles with microformat fieldnames

using Wikipedia placeholders
if the fieldvalue isn't already a url

using del.icio.us tags
to sort fieldtypes



other possible prototypes:
website-profile microformat
webpage-profile microformat
blog-profile microformat
video-profile microformat
song-profile microformat
porno-profile microformat

(each of these should be
summarizable
via heraldic barcodes)

Autobiography recapitulates etymogeny

most web2.0 content
(eg blogs, flickr, librarything)
is explicitly autobiographical

documenting your life and tastes
and arranged according to
your personal calendar

so it's not hard to imagine
some web2.0 host
(eg facebook)
supporting a personal
autobiographical chronology
for each registered subscriber

that unifies/collates
all these separate
content autobiographies

with anecdotes photographs maps
lists of books read
movies seen
songs heard or sung
clothes worn
food eaten
objects owned

but all these categories of content
and most of the content itself

had its own separate existence
before it first crossed your personal path

(often before you were born)

and wikipedia should offer
a universal
chronological
index/ table of contents

that your (eg) facebook autobiography
should automatically recognise
as a secondary chronological sorting

"in 1973 i read a book
written in 1799"

"in 1987 i saw a supernova
that had occurred 168,000 years earlier"

"in 2001 i witnessed a melodrama
that's been playing and replaying
with infinite variations
since the evolutionary origin
of territorial aggression"

with every human concept
traced ultimately
to its evolutionary source

often billions of years in the past

while this deep
chronological thesaurus-sorting
(or etymogeny)

is barely dreamt of

    Crayolacube combinatorics

    starting
    from the worldtree

    and its
    individual lifelines

    isolate any
    line segment
    and flatten its spatial dimensions
    down to just x
    (with time as y)



    paint this segment
    using any convenient mapping
    (eg the crayolacube
    red-evil blue-sad
    yellow-sick or -enslaved)



    classify your segment by
    start-color
    and end-color



    ignoring intermediate values
    (here greyed)

    notice the formal analogy
    with the i ching's 64 hexgrams
    permuting eight trigrams



    each colorchange
    within any segment
    must have
    causes

    some expected
    some unexpected



    now
    isolate any pair of segments
    that start and end
    at the same times

    and classify this pair
    by its two start colors
    and its two end colors
    (8^4 = 4096, too slow to render)



    #1 of 64



    sometimes the colorchange
    in one segment
    will help cause the colorchange
    in the other segment

    via
    a strong or weak
    linkage
    strong
    weak
