Stéphane has just posted a call for feedback on the Drupal 7 RDFa design, before the first official alpha release.
First reaction above all, is that this is great news! Very happy to see this work maturing.
I’ve tried to quickly suggest some tweaks to the vocab, by hacking his diagram in photoshop. All it really shows [...]

RDFa in Drupal 7: last call for feedback before alpha release
WOT in RDFa?
(This post is written in RDFa…)
To the best of my knowledge, Ludovic Hirlimann’s PGP fingerprint is 6EFBD26FC7A212B2E093 B9E868F358F6C139647C. You might also be interested in his photos on flickr, or his workplace, Mozilla Messaging. The GPG key details were checked over a Skype video call with me, Ludo and Kaare A. Larsen.

WordPress trust syndication revisited: F2F plugin
This is a followup to my Syndicating trust? Mediawiki, Wordpress and OpenID post. I now have a simple implementation that exports data from WordPress: the F2F plugin. Also some experiments with consuming aggregates of this information from multiple sources.
FOAF has always had a bias towards describing social things that are shown rather than merely [...]

Wordpress, TinyMCE and RDFa editors
I’m writing this in Wordpress’s ‘Visual’ mode WYSIWYG HTML editor, and thinking “how could it be improved to support RDFa?”
Well let’s think. Humm. In RDFa, every section of text is always ‘about’ something, and then has typed links or properties associated with that thing. So there are icons ‘B’ for bold, ‘I’ for italics, etc. [...]

Syndicating trust? Mediawiki, Wordpress and OpenID
Fancy title but simple code. A periodic update script is setting user/group membership rules on the FOAF wiki based on a list of trusted (for this purpose) OpenIDs exported from a nearby blog. If you’ve commented on the blog using OpenID and it was accepted, this means you can also perform some admin actions (page [...]

Remote remotes
I’ve just closed the loop on last weekend’s XMPP / Apple Remote hack, using Strophe.js, a library that extends XMPP into normal Web pages. I hope I’ll find some way to use this in the NoTube project (eg. wired up to Web-based video playing in OpenSocial apps), but even if not it has been a [...]

Streaming Apple Events over XMPP
I’ve just posted a script that will re-route the OSX Apple Remote event stream out across XMPP using the Switchboard Ruby library, streaming click-down and click-up events from the device out to any endpoint identified by a Jabber/XMPP JID (i.e. Jabber ID). In my case, I’m connecting to XMPP as the user xmpp:buttons@foaf.tv, who is [...]

Apple Remote events – a quick howto
Anyone who has recently bought an Apple computer probably has one or more Apple Remotes.
I have been learning how to access them. Conclusion: iremoted does 95% of what you probably need, and the discussion over on cocoadev.com tells you more than you probably wanted to know. My experiments are written up in a corner of [...]

Local Video for Local People
OK it’s all Google stuff, but still good to see. Go to Google Maps, My Maps, to find ‘Videos from YouTube’ listed. Here’s where I used to live (Bristol UK) and where I live now (Amsterdam, The Netherlands). Here’s a promo film of some nearby art installations from ArtZuid, who even have a page in [...]
