Live Matrix – a TV Guide for The Web

Live Matrix is a new project by Sanjay Reddy and Nova Spivack. Spivack was the man behind Twine, a semantic bookmarking service, that was sold recently to Evri. Live Matrix will organize anything taking place on the web. Audiocasts, auctions, chats, MMO games, etc. According to TechCrunch they’re up to 80,000 scheduled events every week, and growing quickly.
Invitations for events are called “RSVP’s” (The term RSVP comes from the French expression “répondez s’il vous plaît”, meaning “please respond”. If RSVP is written on an invitation it means the invited guest must tell the host whether or not they plan to attend the party. Via about.com)

  • The Aesthetics and Beauty of Knowledge

    Shih was the opposite of facts and raw information; shih was the elegance of knowledge, the insight and skill to organize knowledge into meaningful patterns. As an artist chooses colours or light to make her pictures, a master of shih chooses textures of knowledge – various ideas, myths, abstractions, and theories – to create a way of seeing the world. The aesthetics and beauty of knowledge – this was shih.

    – David Zindell, The Broken God, 1993

  • Geek Attitude

    The attitude thing is about flexibility, portability, creativity, sociability and jamming (ran out of suitable “ity” words!). It’s about improvising – in the practical and musical senses of the word; not getting tangled in boundaries and the “right” way to do things.
    Definitely the only way to travel.
