W Eb 2.0 Mashups CYAN YELLOW MAGENTA BLACK PANTONE 123 C BOOKS FOR PROFESSIONALS BY PROFESSIONALS® THE EXPERT’S VOICE® IN WEB DEVELOPMENT Companion eBook Available Pro Web 2.0 Mashups: Remixing Data and Web Services Pro Dear Reader, Web 2.0 Mashups Web The Web contains thousands of mashups that recombine everything including Pro Google Maps, Flickr, Amazon.com, NASA, the New York Times, and Wikipedia with useful information about travel, finance, real estate, and more. By fusing elements from multiple web sites, mashups are often informative, useful, fun, and even transformative. Mashups also represent the way the Web as a whole is heading. By reading this book and working through the examples, you will learn how to create your own mashups; how to exploit such web elements as URLs, tags, and RSS feeds in your mashups; and how to combine APIs and data into mashups. Web 2.0 All you need to make full use of this book is basic knowledge of HTML, CSS, and JavaScript, and at least one server-side language (such as PHP, ASP.NET, or Python). By the time you’re finished, you will be able to take almost any source of data on the Web and mash it up with another to create unique and exciting sites of your own. This book draws from my experiences teaching graduate students and high- school students how to create mashups. I describe techniques to analyze and dissect existing mashups so that you can start from first principles, gaining the Mashups skills you need to write your own. Believe me, once you start creating mashups and seeing what you can do with them, you won’t want to stop.

LUCRE stands for Local and User-Created Services. The project is part of the Flexible Services research programme, one of the programmes of the Strategic Centre for Science, Technology and Innovation in the ICT field (TIVIT) and funded by Tekes (the Finnish Funding Agency for Technology and Innovation) and the participating organizations. The Flexible Service Programme creates service business activity for global markets. The programme has the aim of creating a Web of Services. The programme creates new types of ecosystems, in which the producers of services, the people that convey the service and the users all work together in unison. As part of such ecosystems, LUCRE will develop an easy-to-use, visual service creation platform to support the creation of context aware mobile services. The goal is to support user-driven open innovation: the end- users (people, local businesses, communities) will be provided with tools to compose new services or to modify existing ones. The service creation platform will build on the technology of existing mashup tools, widget frameworks, and publish/subscribe mechanisms.

The thesis is equivalent to 20 weeks of full time studies. Contact Information: Author(s): TAO SUN E-mail: [email protected] [email protected] [email protected] University advisor: Samuel A. Fricker Faculty of Computing Faculty of Computing Internet : www.bth.se Blekinge Institute of Technology Phone : +46 455 38 50 00 SE-371 79 Karlskrona, Sweden Fax : +46 455 38 50 57 i i ABSTRACT Context. For the product manager, the product context analysis, which aims to align their products to the market needs, is very important. By understanding the market needs, the product manager knows the product context information about the environment the products conceived and the business the products take place. The product context analysis using the product context information helps the product manager find the accurate position of his/her products and support the decision-making of the products. The product context information generally could be found in the user feedbacks. And the traditional techniques of acquiring the user feedbacks can be replaced by collecting the existed online user feedbacks with a cheaper cost. Therefore, researchers did studies on the online user feedbacks and the results showed those user feedbacks contain the product context information. Therefore, in this study, I tried to elicit the product context information from the user feedbacks posted on Twitter.

  • What Is Greasemonkey? MUGOO Browser Survey Creammonkey For
    3 GreaseMonkey Article Intro What is GreaseMonkey? GreaseMonkey is a Firefox browser addon that allows you to write or use Javascripts that alter the web pages you visit. You can use it to make a web site more readable or more usable. You can fix web site display bugs that the site owner can't be bothered to fix themselves. You can even automatically retrieve data from other sites to make two sites more interconnected. In short it will let you have some control of the sites you visit. Greasemonkey by itself does none of these things. In fact, after you install it, you won't notice any change at all... until you start installing what are called 'user scripts'. A user script is just a chunk of Javascript code, with some additional information that tells Greasemonkey where and when it should be run. Each user script can target a specific page, a specific site, or a group of sites. A user script can do anything you can do in Javascript. In fact, it can do even more than that, because Greasemonkey provides special functions that are only available to user scripts. MUGOO Browser Survey Most club members use Safari but a significant number also use Firefox mostly on the Mac and some also on Windows. GreaseMonkey works with the FireFox browser but there is also a Safari program called CreamMonkey that has similar capabilities. Javascripts written for GreaseMonkey are not 100% compatible with CreamMonkey because Safari's JavaScript implementation is not completely compatible with Firefox's and GM_registerMenuCommand is not available in CreamMonkey.
