Paper: Folksonomies – Power to the people (Sv)

Posted by Fredrik | Filed under Papers

Abstract

In recent years there has been a development of Web 2.0 services which supply a simpler way of communicating and sharing information over the Internet. Earlier, Web 2.0 has been a synonym for the semantic web which is a universal medium for giving web content a meaning for computer machines. Out of Web 2.0 services Folksonomies has been developed which is a way for users to tag their own Internet material for later and easier information retrieval.

 

Folksonomies are useful in that way it categorizes information instead of how the earlier semantic web classified web pages and its information. It uses a kind of bottom-up strategy created by users own intuitive way of organizing information. A strategy, were the human intelligence is embedded in the system.

• Crossdomain image loading hack

  So about that little crossdomain image loading hack.

  on the INIT event of your loader do the following:

  var lInfo:LoaderInfo = e.target as LoaderInfo;
var dO:DisplayObject;
try{
dO = lInfo.content as DisplayObject;
} catch(err:SecurityError){
var spt:Sprite = new Sprite();
spt.addChild(lInfo.loader);
dO = spt;
}

• Finding http-links in NSString

  Had some problem with long http links in a UIWebView so I created this simple function that finds links existing in a NSString and creates an a-tag with a “Read more” label. Suited my needs for the moment.

  - (NSString *)parseLinks:(NSString *)html { NSScanner *theScanner; NSString *text = nil; theScanner = [NSScanner scannerWithString:html]; while ([theScanner isAtEnd] == NO) { // find start of tag [theScanner scanUpToString:@"http" intoString:NULL] ; // find end of tags [theScanner scanUpToString:@"<" intoString:&text] ; html = [html stringByReplacingOccurrencesOfString: [NSString stringWithFormat:@"%@", text] withString:[NSString stringWithFormat:@"Read more", text]]; break; } return html; }

• NSUserDefaults

  Want to store light information such as user defaults, current highscore fast and easy? Just use NSUserDefault.

  Example: Adding the current highscore:
[[NSUserDefaults standardUserDefaults] setInteger:scoreValue forKey:@"score"];

  Example: Get the current highscore
[[NSUserDefaults standardUserDefaults] integerForKey:@"score"]];

  Except primitives it works for NSData, NSString, NSNumber, NSDate, NSArray and NSDictionary
