Just by way of a heads up, coming out of the Interaction Design and Semantic Web workshop, there is first the JoDI special issue and then a follow up workshop. Lynda Hardman has proposed the idea of a call for design prototypes for the JoDI issue - where a possible prize might be offered. Jim Hendler suggested that the next workshop focus on semantic web photo aps, reusing the web photo archive. I'm thinking there's a nice, two tiered-ness here: that we put out a call for prototypes matching a specific criteria (not unlike the way the semantic web challenge has done) and that these be presented as design documents/mockups, possibly cognitive walkthroughs for a series of functions that have to be included (based on what we're learning we need from Greg's ap). The results make the community aware of what folks are thinking of, and perhaps inspire collaborations for new ways of using the data; new types of applications. Then, by the time the next web conference rolls around, we have the challenge with respect to finished aps. For this to be of value to the research community, both parts - the design phase and the implementation phase (i know they're iterative but just for context) should have some good questions/problems associated with them that the challengers can address. Thoughts/feedback welcome. mc At 11:54 -0400 on 26/5/04, Shneiderman, Ben wrote: >Dear photo fans, > > Let me add my compliments to all those who did the hard work to >get the photo project launched.. especially Greg.
