2010 The Decade of Content Discovery

By Dudu Mimran | January 6, 2010September 29, 2020 by Dudu Mimran

The last decade, 2000-2009, flourished with new content creation tools: blogging, tweets, videos, personal pages/profiles, and many others. One thing that did not catch the speed of innovation on the content creation side is content discovery tools. We are still mainly using Google’s interface of search results to find stuff interesting. There were few tryouts for visualizing things differently but none of them prevailed. The feeling of something missing always happens to me when I…

Wikipedia for Patents?

By Dudu Mimran | December 8, 2009September 29, 2020 by Dudu Mimran

Recently I have been dealing a lot with patents and I have to say this is not easy! Patents although claimed to be written in English are most of the time just cryptic. It is almost impossible to an effective patent search and even when you get results, just decrypting what is written here is an impossible task. In the field of information retrieval patents I guess are considered something very difficult to crack and…

Machine Operated Web Applications

By Dudu Mimran | December 8, 2009September 29, 2020 by Dudu Mimran

Software applications have two main perspectives the external perspective where interfaces to the external world are defined and consumed and the internal perspective where an internal structure enables and supports the external interface. Let me elaborate on this: The internal perspective shows the building blocks and layers within the application allowing specific data flow and processing. To further simplify things let’s take an example from the real world and that is a real building block.…

Everyone focus now on revenues and efficiency as opposed to last year efforts?

By Dudu Mimran | January 9, 2009September 29, 2020 by Dudu Mimran

The end of year is full of posts about how all startups and CEOs (now after the market meltdown) are going to be focused in 2009 on revenues, efficiency, listening to customers, making better products, and more… Just the other day I read Some startup CEOs? New Years’ resolutions where most resolutions sound like boiler plated stuff. It is not that I don’t appreciate efficiency and revenues, don’t get me wrong, but still one has…

Thoughts on application development and setup in windows vs. linux

By Dudu Mimran | January 4, 2009September 29, 2020 by Dudu Mimran

After many long years of development to both MS Windows platforms and Linux platforms and especially lots of frustration in recent days trying to install/uninstall software on my WinXP to solve a problem I have few conclusions on proprietary vs. open source development. One of the nice things about development in Microsoft world (or at least seems so until you get into trouble) is that everything wraps up so nicely as if you were in…

RSS based ranking or maybe a new protocol is needed?

By Dudu Mimran | January 4, 2009January 13, 2019 by Dudu Mimran

RSS is a protocol for transmitting changes within blogs that has been widely adopted and provides a solution for a big problem people had in tracking changes in content effectively. RSS is doing a perfect job in providing updates to content based on time of change but still lacks support for providing other criteria for ordering changes. At first RSS has been used solely for providing list of recent changes whether for blogs or other…

Google is the 21st Century Mainframe!

By Dudu Mimran | May 17, 2006September 29, 2020 by Dudu Mimran

All the big guys are rushing these days to launch as many web applications as possible to “captivate” web surfers in their “club”. Google in a dramatic and maybe a little bit panicked response to Microsoft‘s threats and Yahoo‘s renovated website started launching an application a day. It doesn’t matter anymore what it is, as long it is new and it does something at all then it should be launched – that seems to be…

Amanda Watlington relates to USAToday article on Blogging and CEO on a post Blogs and Feeds: CEO Blogs — Where Angels(?) Fear to Tread. I am a CEO of a new venture company and a blogger for the last four months and I wanted to write down what do I get from it: 1) Feedback on my thoughts – As a CEO and a person in general I have different opinions on various subjects related…
