Apologies for the lack of content recently. Since the start of the new college term I've been very busy with assignments, one of which is a mock-up of website I had to produce for one of my courses IS6116 Programming for Web Applications and Services.

The mock-up can be viewed at this link. The site is little more than a facade at the moment, with limited functionality due to the fact that we were only allowed to use client-side scripting for this phase of the project. The javascript for the login and registration work but they're not linked to anything yet and won't store any information.

The next phase of the project will involve using PHP to give the site more functionality with server-side scripting.

I'd welcome any feedback or comments.

Web 3.0

I came across a ZDNet blog post a couple of days ago that featured a nice video on Web 3.0. It's an interesting and concise explanation of how the agents might work and, at just under 4 minutes long, it's well worth a look.

Calais

I've been doing some research for a report I have to do on the semantic web and I came across this ZDNet blog post on how Oracle will be offering support for Thomson Reuter's Calais service. Calais is a service that generates semantic metadata. It looks interesting and the site is worth a visit.

This video gives a brief overview of the service.
