Just a bit off-topic, but have anyone considered using FOAF[1] as format to store contacts info? Mobile phones are devices in a net, why not somekind of connection to semantic web technologies? i.e. in FOAF you can store friend's geoposition, and Neo1973 has a GPS... so you could find your nearest friends... Think about the possibilities.
Another question, perhaps, it would be interesting contacting Mozilla Foundation to work together in "Mobile Companion"[2], [3] [1] http://www.foaf-project.org/ [2] http://wiki.mozilla.org/MobileCompanion [3] http://weblogs.mozillazine.org/dougt/archives/017470.html 2007/1/23, Andrew Turner <[EMAIL PROTECTED]>:
Rob, this is the purpose behind openID. OpenMoKo could be an OpenID server for those that want to use it, but you can just as easily setup your own too. http://andrew.turner.highearthorbit.com/ On 1/23/07, Robert Michel <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> wrote: > Salve Richard! > > On Tue, 23 Jan 2007, Richard Franks wrote: > > > Will we have something like this?
