<blockquote>The 230 mile '''Cape Loop''' takes you through La Paz, Todos Santos, Cabo San Lucas, San Jose del Cabo, Buena Vista/Los Barriles, San Bartolo, El Triunfo and San Pedro. Close to La Paz the traffic may be too heavy but you can ride on the parallel dirt road. The longest distance between hotels is 70 miles. Otherwise camping is available. Organized bicycle tour companies originate in Baja, the US and Canada.

<blockquote>
* International
I would fly to Cabo San Lucas to start the tour. Southern Baja is much safer with far less traffic. If you have knobby tires, nice low gearing and a sense of adventure, there are plenty of dirt roads along the Sea of Cortez up to La Paz. You can camp anywhere you like on pristine beaches with nobody in sight for miles. Beautiful.
* Focused on presentation
* Anyone can create a site
** Network effect
* Hyperlinks


Actually a loop from Cabo to La Paz up the east side and then from La Paz to Cabo down the west side would make a good trip. Todos Santos on the Pacific side is a quaint surf town with a growing expat community.

(dgm) Interesting section from the Moon Cabo book. Happily we already decided on this route ourselves.
* Portland Pattern Repository - 1995


<blockquote>"While we understand the attraction of this epic cycling tour, we believe the dangers of riding along the highway have been downplayed for too long. In the early days of the paved road, when traffic was lighter, cycling may have been a safer option, but today, motorists, RVers, and truckers drive at faster speeds and in greater numbers. The problem is the width of the road. When two 18-wheelers approach from opposite directions, they pass with inches of pavement between them. If the driver must choose between colliding with an oncoming truck or pushing a cyclist off the road, the cyclist is inevitably going to lose out. Shoulders and guardrails are non-existent on many of the most dangerous stretches of road.<br />
Allows easy, quick editing of any page, usually by anyone.


If your dream is to ride your bike the length of Baja, consider an off-road route a la the Baja 1000. This way, you can enjoy more of the coastal and mountain scenery and avoid putting yourself in danger on the highway.<br />

In Southern Baja, the Camino Rural Costero between San Jose del Cabo and Cabo Pulmo is a fantastic route along the coast, as is the dirt road between Los Barriles and Bahia de los Muertos."

Revision as of 23:00, 18 June 2010

Wikis are commonly used for group content development. Semantic Mediawiki adds easier to use forms and the ability to annotate distinct content such as places, people and dates for reuse in interactive views and queries. In this session, we'll look at how semantic wikis can be used to develop content for indigenous and linguistic communities, with a practical, hands on focus including how to create pages, categories and simple ontologies. We will focus on processes to make sites inclusive, and examine fair terms of re-use.

Web

  • International
  • Focused on presentation
  • Anyone can create a site
    • Network effect
  • Hyperlinks

Wikis

  • Portland Pattern Repository - 1995

Allows easy, quick editing of any page, usually by anyone.

  • Types of wikis
    • Personal wiki
    • Group
    • Organization
    • Topical
    • ...

  • More upcoming focus on media


Mediawiki

  • Free Software (GPL)
  • Hundreds of thousands of sites
  • Hundreds of extensions
  • Page, not content manager
  • Designed for open editing, can be closed

Wiki use and editing

On any wiki with critical mass:

  • Readers
  • Drive by editor
  • Topic editor
  • Nerd core
  • Typical process
    • Messes
    • Gardening

How to use a wiki

  • Editing - start with an outline

Editing wikis

  • Wikis typically use their own markup (syntax)
  • Rich/wysiwyg editors create messes
    • Typical word processors adding junk, can't re-use for headings, can't compare versions
    • No re-usable meaning added

  • = Heading 1 =
  • * Bullet point
  • [[Wiki link]]
  • View source to learn from others
  • Edit sections to compartmentalize changes

Brackets must be matched!!!!


Elements of markup

Semantic

  • Computers are not very good at understanding human language
  • Adding re-usable meaning through relationships.


  • Triples - expressing relationships
    • Subject, predicate, object


  • David lives in Montreal.
    • David: subject
    • Lives in: predicate
    • Montreal: object


  • Subject, predicate, object have their own relationships.
  • Montreal is a city.
  • A city is a place.
  • Montreal is the English word for Montréal.
  • What are the names for the place where the St Lawrence and Ottawa rivers meet ?

Web of data

On Social Learning, Sensemaking Capacity, and Collective Intelligence

Semantic Mediawiki

  • Practical way of adding semantic data to wikis (mediawiki)
  • Anyone can add semantic content
