<p>PaserRovar: trtracelbo</p> <hr /> <div>trocgettroc<br /> = Attention Brainstorming =<br /> <br /> This page is for brainstorming about ideas, proposals, constraints, requirements for an [[attention|Attention]] microformat.<br /> <br /> <br /> This is part of an open standards community effort to update (even rethink and rewrite) the [http://developers.technorati.com/wiki/attentionxml Attention.xml] format on a strong foundation of research of existing examples and formats, as well as leveraging the Attention.XML implementation experience from [http://attensa.com Attensa], [http://commerce.net CommerceNet], [http://technorati.com Technorati], and any other interested Attention developers.<br /> <br /> == Authors ==<br /> <br /> * Tim Brown<br /> * Tantek Çelik<br /> * Eric Hayes<br /> * Rohit Khare<br /> * Kevin Marks<br /> <br /> == Experience ==<br /> <br /> Both Technorati and Attensa have implementation experience with [http://developers.technorati.com/wiki/attentionxml Attention.XML] and other attention formats.<br /> <br /> === Other Attention-like Things ===<br /> <br /> * [http://www.43folders.com/2005/10/19/personal-status-page/ Personal Status Pages]<br /> <br /> === Lessons Learned ===<br /> * Hierarchy in the format gets in the way more than it helps<br /> * Need to define a minimally useful subset for ease of implementation and interoperability<br /> * Need to &quot;chunk&quot; any sets of additional data<br /> <br /> == Goals / Requirements ==<br /> <br /> === Definite ===<br /> * Needs to be represent sparse (over time and source) data<br /> * &quot;Blendable&quot; - get an attention &quot;chunk&quot; every day from a source and be able to aggregate the chunks into one attention file.<br /> * Flat by default. Permit hierarchy but don't require it, and don't require parsing of a hierarchy (i.e. allow treating the attention as a simple flat set of attention items).<br /> <br /> === Non-goals ===<br /> These are things we want to avoid in an Attention format, mostly due to [[privacy]] reasons.<br /> <br /> * cookies<br /> * login information<br /> * personally identifiable information in URLs (e.g. PHP session info)<br /> <br /> == Strawman Schema Thoughts ==<br /> <br /> === Each Attention Item contains ===<br /> <br /> ==== item info ====<br /> * item url (rss article url, etc)<br /> * parent context (feed or source site, )<br /> * attention date (article last read time)<br /> <br /> ==== implicit info ====<br /> * duration (attention duration, how long did i look at this page or article)<br /> * followed links (click through. could result in a next attention item)<br /> * read state<br /> <br /> ==== explicit info ====<br /> * [[vote-links|voting]]<br /> * [[hreview|hReview]]<br /> ** rating<br /> ** [[rel-tag|tags]]<br /> * explicit read or unread state<br /> <br /> * date removed<br /> <br /> === Item Containers ===<br /> <br /> * .<br /> <br /> == See Also ==<br /> * [[attention-examples]]<br /> * [[attention-formats]]<br /> * Previous [http://developers.technorati.com/wiki/AttentionXMLBrainstorming Attention.xml brainstorming] thoughts.</div>
