271703 - BrowseUp was demonstrated for accomplishing Hyperscope objectives. It
271704 - creates links on the Internet quickly and easily, which could help
271705 - people transition from IT to KM by linking to relevant information.
271706 - Alon gave an excellent presentation showing BrowseUp improves
271707 - collaboration, which is a major goal of the OHS/DKR project. BrowseUp
271708 - needs a larger base of experience to establish productivity gains can
271709 - be realized using this method. ref SDS 0 NN5G

272105 -
272106 - Doug introduced Alon Schwarz (Alon@BrowseUp.com), President, CEO and
272107 - Cofounder of "BrowseUp," an Israeli startup. Jim Spohrer urged the
272108 - OHS/DKR team to see this exciting new technology, as set out in Doug's
272109 - letter on 010119. ref DRP 1 0001
272110 -
272111 - Grant Bowman called in from Germany to hear the presentation.
272112 -
272113 - Alon explained his vision and system requirements for BrowseUp to
272114 - improve collaboration. Alon's colleague at the meeting today is the
272115 - engineer who developed BrowseUp.
272116 - ..
272117 - The presentation showed that BrowseUp makes it fast and easy to
272118 - improve collaboration by creating links on the Internet with an
272119 - intermediate record of anchors and text strings, as Doug related on
272120 - 010119. ref SDS 15 AT7K Alon showed today that links can be created
272121 - to and from an original source.
272122 -
272123 - See below on back-links. ref SDS 0 GHR2
272124 -
272125 - [On 010124 Jack Park explains technical process BrowseUp uses to
272126 - create links, similar to "transclusion" developed by Ted Nelson in
272127 - Xanadu. ref SDS 16 007P
272128 -
272129 - [On 010131 Eugene Kim submitted references that describe the main
272130 - problem to solve for developing the OHS is the lack of simple,
272131 - standard, machine-readable ways for associating related
272132 - information. ref SDS 20 SW4O

272135 - anchors to facilitate linking. ref SDS 23 K66N
272136 - ..
272137 - BrowseUp requires Microsoft's Internet Explorer, and runs on
272138 - most operating systems. Microsoft ME os may not support BrowseUp.
272139 - Alon seemed to indicate that the Netscape browser is, also, not
272140 - supported. There was mention, possibly by Lee Iverson, that Netscape
272141 - version 6 has a lot of problems, so lack of support by BrowseUp may
272142 - not be significant.

272150 - Alon seemed to indicate that BrowseUp can be downloaded from the
272151 - web to experiment with the technology.
272152 -
272153 - Since Hyperscope is the launching step toward bootstrapping the OHS
272154 - and DKR capabilities, BrowseUp could expedite progress on project
272155 - objectives to improve competence, reviewed on 001114 in connection

272164 - BrowseUp is a major step toward Hyperscope linking requirements, which
272165 - Doug proposed in the OHS Launch Plan on 001017. ref SDS 10 A5U6
272166 -
272167 - BrowseUp can help the OHS/DKR team link to relevant information in
272168 - the record, which Doug requested on 001025. ref SDS 10 00VU It is
272169 - a solid program that adds to mainstream IT tools recommended by
272170 - Eugene Kim on 001126 for learning KM. ref SDS 12 QW8I BrowseUp
272171 - solves concern that linking takes too much time, cited by Grant

272190 - Open Source Collaboration Can Advance Common Objectives

272192 - BrowseUp seems to be planned as a proprietary venture. Doug
272193 - related consideration for applying this capability to advance Open
272194 - Source goals of OHS/DKR, set out in the Launch Plan on 001025.

272208 - the award for the National Medal of Technology, ref SDS 14 0001, to
272209 - Doug's BI web site showing the medal Doug was awarded.
272210 -
272211 - There was a snag in creating this link. Doug asked if this can occur
272212 - due to irregular HTML in the target file? Eugene noted that the HTML
272213 - anchor in the record on 001220 may cause this difficulty.
272214 - ..
272215 - Linking to other files was accomplished quickly and easily.
272216 -
272217 - Alon explained BrowseUp tracks links forward and backward, which
272218 - aligns with OHS/DKR objectives Doug set on 000608. ref SDS 6 2760

272220 -
272221 - ..
272222 - Links Managed by Priority and Filtering to Avoid Confusion
272223 -
272224 - Alon noted that tracking a lot of links could cause confusion due to
272225 - complexity. This aligns with Eric Armstrong's planning for OHS
272226 - requirements on 000125, warning that a connected environment "boggles
272227 - the mind." ref SDS 2 3867 More recently on 001219 Paul Fernhout
272228 - worried that expanding complexity is a bigger threat than running out
272229 - of oil. ref SDS 13 9I6K Earlier on 000601 Paul reported SDS links are
272230 - confusing. ref SDS 4 0894 On 000824 Eric is not a big fan of links to

272234 - on 001025. ref SDS 10 6864 See also "Back Links" below. ref SDS 0
272235 - GHR2
272236 - ..
272237 - BrowseUp has several procedures to avoid confusion by managing
272238 - links.
272239 -
272240 - 1. Priority shows most frequently used links.
272241 -
272242 - On 990525 this feature was expected to be useful. ref SDS 1

350902 - Backlinks Present Issues about Changing Original Source Material
350903 -
350904 - Alon's demonstration seemed to show that BrowseUp technology enables
350905 - anyone to add links from an original source on the Internet produced
350906 - by someone else, to another source file on the Internet, in addition
350907 - to merely linking to relevant parts of an original work. Doug's call
350908 - for addressability on 000405 supports communication and understanding,
350909 - which are aided by linking to another person's record, similar to
350910 - saying you can visit so and so at the following address, and
350911 - incidentally, notice the garden in left side of the yard. Doug called
350912 - out back-link management in the OHS Launch Plan on 001025. ref SDS 10

350916 - granular and bidirectional. ref SDS 17 HV5H
350917 - ..
350918 - "Backlinking" seems to pose the prospect of not merely pointing
350919 - to a location for information, but changing the location by putting a
350920 - pointer to somewhere that is not authorized by the owner, like putting
350921 - up a sign in someone's yard.
350922 -
350923 - There was no discussion today about implications that may flow from
350924 - adding links to other people's work, without permission of the

481115 - ..
481116 - Alon said the BrowseUp team has not yet applied this method to
481117 - improve handling daily working information, because the team has been
481118 - busy developing and demonstrating how BrowseUp is used. As a result,
481119 - there is not yet a body of work product that demonstrates the problems
481120 - of multiple links, and how BrowseUp priorities and filters help manage
481121 - complexity and avoid confusion.
