I was able to participate in the Travelcamp of Rimini, at the TTG, and I am well pleased. Despite participants were not many (I can not speak publicly because in theory a BarCamp is not passive audience) the level was certainly very high and there was talk of arguments among the latest and most interesting, that I will not repeat or list, refer to the guide that will surely Paolo Zaccheo on the official website: http://www.barcamp.org/travelcamp
An event like this, and above all these things, they give you to think about, you show that there are people who have ideas in my head and try in every way to put them into practice, even if at times seem more real bets that organized projects, but that's okay, the Web is the important part because however, everyone is a winner.
sure I came back with a positive charge, with the desire to use new tools to improve myself "inside" and "outside" of what I do, and will give an impression of "2.0" to new initiatives here recently I called to make.
But once again all of this collides with the sense of boundless that sometimes gives me the Web. Once again I repeat now that the network is all there is everything, and it is useless to create new tools for new content.
What need is there, I wonder, of new sites where upload your own photos? What good is having more than one account on different social networks? How long you have to lose to reload the same content in multiple places in the net just because we want to be sure that all our contacts can see them?
In my little, and I'm definitely a rookie of social networks, I have already uploaded at least 10 times my little profile picture that I created on many sites. A very small redundancy unimportant, but to me symptomatic of the real problem that will soon be the biggest problem of web usability and filtering of information, the need for a sieve that allows you to connect the digital information that resides on sites and systems.
Even Travelcamp Rimini, Paolo Zaccheo did a classic example the world of tourism, the absence of a unique database of tourism resources: each hotel has surveyed hundreds or thousands of times in different systems, each time with a different code and perhaps with slight variations in name or address which lead to confusion or duplication. Since the problem is with current technology simple solution, I wonder how much authority should have an organization to build, distribute and to become de facto standards such unified archive.
The idea intrigues me much food for thought and opens significant.
We will come back on, if in the meantime there are ideas or comments .....
