Not sure if this gets posted as I am on a very weak connection restored today after being unable to access ITVidya for a couple of days after the internet connection in Singapore got disrupted due to under sea cable damage in Taiwan Quake.
Yes, for a moment it looked like we have gone back to medieval age! The quake might have spared the massive damage to human lives this time on boxing day. But it has definitely exposed the vulnerability of central systems in a increasingly distributed and globalized era of connectivity.
Our efforts to find facts seem to be paying off! Recently, I personally came across a very interesting Technical Paper written by Researchers at a Technical University in Germany. Unfortunately, it is just a paper and I was not able to find anything in concrete form that can be evaluated as an offering.
This finding makes it a good reference to discuss during the Seminar on 19th May
The fact finding mission will go on till 15th May
It's official now and something strange too!
The cooperative had no choice but to assure itself that it was not making a false claim. It was now ready for letting go some stake for someone who is so seriously active and informed of global IT markets.
The Press Release and the announcement on the website would give the visitors an opportunity to involve and find the facts whatsover.
What a way to spend the long weekend with a fact finding mission for the sake of Vishwa Samooha?
I live with a vivid memory of that day when I visited the JXTA.org on April 25 2001 when it was launched with much fanfare as an Open Source project which was an outcome of $10 Mn acquisition of Gene Kan's Infrasearch by Sun. If Bill Joy liked something I am sure there were many who would like it, then! JXTA was one such thing.
While trying to build something over Jini along with my first IT Guru Tarun Bhargava, JXTA seemed very exciting and promising when we thought of the possibilities in a socially, geographically, economically and politically realigning world.
This has been going in my mind for over 5 years within. Should a nation with more than a billion bodies be busy coding for billing or need to seriously innovate to develop to distribute?
I think I found the answer in Samooha http://www.samooha.com. Develop to distribute is the best way to go forward. It would not only be in the interest of a nation that is emerging out of woods but also would be in the greater interest of a balanced world.
Now bloggers have a greater role to play in shaping the destiny of "Develop 2 Distribute" through Samooha!
