Connections Between XStreet, FreeBase, and Smartphones
Several technologies are changing our lives for the future.
- Open application interface standards -- Application Programming Interfaces (APIs)
- Open structured data base standards -- FreeBase http://www.freebase.com/
- Smartphone technologies integrated with navigation tools -- high bandwidth wireless technologies
- 3D Virtual Reality platforms -- SecondLife
- Web 2.0 integrated technology development tools -- eCommerce payment tools such as XStreet http://www.xstreetsl.com/
- Secure exchange of information between mobile devices -- Create a publicly available digital fingerprint, known as a cryptographic hash mark, that will make it possible for anyone to determine that documents are authentic and have not been tampered with. http://www.nytimes.com/2009/01/27/science/27arch.html?_r=1
With structured data you can now do intelligent or scripted queries. With this structured database and open source application programming interface (API) services I can see where smartphone user development features will accelerate.
The next big break through, I believe, is when we can start using our smartphones to complete secure transactions. Your mobile communicator, computer, web search tool, business organizer, navigation tool, and entertainment center will then be almost complete (needs to be a outside your body remote sensor to collect health information off your internal sensors).
Now we should be able to use the smartphone sensor technology to record information and then be able to transform/transpose the data into a 3D virtual reality platform and then back again once we have modified the virtual reality.
We now could visualize (with holograhic display technologies) our future reality right in a community redevelopment effort.
