PubSubPubHub peering XMPP servers
Submitted by paulscott56 on Sun, 15/11/2009 - 11:20.
Set up an eJabberd instance to peer to major Jabber/XMPP providers to support PubSub and/or PubHub for SA locally. This would simply require server infrastructure (dependent on traffic of course), bandwidth and physical placement in a datacentre.
Using this type of technology, web developers could implement "push" updates to other web apps, users and other services. This means a general reduction in bandwidth usage overall as it scales as there will be way less polling for RSS feeds, updates etc.
Leveraging economy of scale, this will start to improve the user experience of all in SA as networks will be less congested and ISP's will save on international bandwidth, so then are able to pass those savings onto their clients!

IDEA SUMMARY: Display wine
IDEA SUMMARY: Display wine reviews from Twitter and aggregate postive / negative language and scores to produce a recommendation engine. If successful, look to build community features of the back of the data stream.POSITIONING: Wine information for the man in the street. For the guy or gal that can't describe bouquet, but knows what they enjoy. And doesn't mind commentating on it publicly.THE PREMISE: It is highly unlikely that any major new social players will arrive in the next couple of years. Because cisco dumps.....

@paulscott56 i see you've
@paulscott56 i see you've signed up on the server mentioned above (or below, depending on where this comment ends up). won't you do me a favour and see whether it provides everything you were hoping for & whether it has any problems that you can see. keep in touch with me (preferably not via here, i'll add you on IM).
and if you're able to, can you do that all in the very near future, before meeeljeeons and meeeljeeons of people all sign-up there. shot. i've done testing of my own, and we didn't mention anything until we'd got it a proper ssl cert etc. so hopefully there shouldn't be anything wrong with it.
Sounds good. Will put
Sounds good. Will put together a POC and we can see how it goes.
