FOAF.Vix is a visualizer and relation explorer for FOAF (Friend of a Friend) files. Although this file format is designed first of all to be machine readable, it is often desirable to be able to browse it as if it were a usual Web page. FOAF.Vix gives you this possibility, presenting the data from a FOAF file in an easy to understand form and allowing to follow links to other Web resources it contains, including links to other FOAF pages, thereby allowing you to explore the network of human relations.

Will Google Calendar hit April 1st? Probably yes or close to it. But today's news is that Writely has been acquired by Google. This is interesting, because Sergey Brin recently at the Web 2.0 conference said:

I don't really think that the thing is to take a previous generation of technology and port them directly, and say can we do the minicomuter on the Web on AJAX makes sense. I'm not saying that's what [Microsoft] Office is, I'm just saying that I think the Web and Web 2.0, if that's what you want to call it, gives you the opportunity to do new and better things than the Office package and more. We don't have any plans [to do an office suite].

What will be the next Microsoft move?
