Details emerged today on Google’s broad social networking ambitions, first reported here in late September, with a follow up earlier this week. The new project, called OpenSocial (URL will go live on Thursday), goes well beyond what we’ve previously reported. It is a set of common APIs that application developers can use to create applications that work on any social networks (called “hosts”) that choose to participate.

Details Revealed: Google OpenSocial To Launch Thursday

Hand-drawn fliers requesting the whereabouts of a lost frog were spotted in various places around Seattle during 2004. Although there were several revisions of the flier, the later popularised version included two drawings of the frog alongside some grammatically incorrect text written in what appears to be a child’s script, which read as follows:

if I looking for frog
him name is hopkin green frog
I lost my frog
329-3228
Love, Terry
P.S. I’ll find my frog
Who took my frog
Who found my frog

A millennium ago the web was made of static websites with flashy ‘Click Here’ .gif files optimized for windows 95 on a 36k modem. These sites had no AJAX techniques, profiles, blogs, let alone an option to comment. The internet was a place to look around, instead of interaction.

Now – a whopping 61,352 hours later – it’s hard to believe on how we could spend our time online without updating our profiles, downloading the newest Prison Break episode, uploading Flickr photo’s, filling our ipod with iTunes songs and reading the latest Google news.

Let’s go back into history and check out what happened to the websites that were ‘hot’ back then. Are there still pieces alive of the old web, or have these sites become an useless appendix?

Forscher an der Carnegie Mellon Universität haben eine Technik entwickelt, mit der sich Peer-to-Peer-Downloads deutlich beschleunigen lassen sollen. Ihre “Similarity-Enhanced Transfer” (SET) funktioniert ähnlich wie BitTorrent, kann aber mehr Quellen nutzen, so dass Downloads bis zu fünfmal schneller ablaufen. Sie hoffen, dass andere die SET-Technik in ihre P2P-Systeme integrieren.
