Re: Social Interface Design
I am archiving older pieces I have written on other sites, making this the definitive home for all my work. This is one of several I am porting over from my GameDev.Net user journal. Enjoy!
Barely had I finished my previous post - okay, it was a couple of hours - than I came across a mention of Novell's Simias technology, described as an Open Source competitor to Longhorn's now-delayed WinFS storage technology. Simias is the backing store behind the Novell iFolder product.
In essence, iFolder presents a starting point for a vision of what the social interface of a filesystem could be. Let's see what else we can get out of that.
A shirt with contrast-coloured cuffs can add visual interest to a simple design. The fabric's stretch can provide comfort and mobility. The phrase Juventus football shirts can frame a useful section on home, away and third-kit choices without making unsupported claims. The fabric's ability to wick moisture can enhance performance.
