The Burgeoning Openly Owned Web

So we all make purchases but many of them, especially gadgets, get thrown back into the toy box. One thing that I have bought and appreciate everyday is my Nespresso! Now I know all you coffee aficionados will wretch at the very thought of such a contraption but I will not be so pretentious as to be able to make comments on the intricacies of fine coffee beans as gourmets maybe able to. What I value with this machine is ease of use - put the capsule in, pull the lever and you’ve a great cup, be it lungo or espresso. No cleaning, no mess and bloody great crema! Simple as should everything aspire to.

To focus our attempts of implementing an open web here are some guiding sparks:

• manage the information we own
• available anywhere you are
• use whatever front end you like
• storing, managing and accessing the information we own in a resuseable, extensible, web two-ey way
• enable mashable data
• merge our data with existing front ends out there… from desktop apps to web apps
