Mozilla Lab’s AURORA - THE FUTURE CONCEPT BROWSER.

What will browsing the web be like a decade from now?
Aurora is a concept video presenting one possible future user experience for the Web, created by Leading design and UI company Adaptive Path as part of the Mozilla Labs concept browser series. Aurora explores new ways people could interact with the Web in the future based on projected technological trends and real-world scenarios.Jesse James Garrett (the guy who coined the term AJAX) designed and narrated part one of a video series demonstrating what the future of the web might look like. There’s some gorgeous, imaginative, and high-tech stuff going on here

The release of Aurora is part of the launch of Mozilla Labs’ browser concept series, an ongoing initiative to encourage designers and developers to contribute their own visions of the future of the browser and the Web. Over the next couple of weeks, Adaptive Path will be releasing more video segments, as well as background material showing just what went into imagining the future of the Web and translating that into a video.

Google Tech Talks
November, 8 2007

ABSTRACT

This presentation is about a potential shortcut to artificial intelligence by trading mind-design for world-design using artificial evolution. Evolutionary algorithms are a pump for turning CPU cycles into brain designs. With exponentially increasing CPU cycles while our understanding of intelligence is almost a flat-line, the evolutionary route to AI is a centerpiece of most Kurzweilian singularity scenarios. This talk introduces the Polyworld artificial life simulator as well as results from our ongoing attempt to evolve artificial intelligence and further the Singularity.

Polyworld is the brain child of Apple Computer Distinguished Scientist Larry Yaeger, who remains the primary developer of Polyworld:

Speaker: Virgil Griffith
Virgil Griffith is a first year graduate student in Computation and Neural Systems at the California Institute of Technology. On weekdays he studies evolution, computational neuroscience, and artificial life. He did computer security work until his first year of university when his work got him sued for sedition and espionage. He then decided that security was probably not safest field to be in and he turned his life to science.

ABSTRACT

Eclipse Day at the Googleplex
Eclipse @ Ebay
Speaker: Michael Galpin, With introduction by Ian Skerrett, Director of Marketing - Eclipse Foundation

Eclipse is great for Java development. Eclipse is great for web development. Eclipse is great for Java web development. The list goes on, but as your business becomes bigger, more specialized and more demanding, chances are that you won’t find exactly what you need on that list. So what do you turn to? Eclipse. See how eBay uses the Eclipse you know and love, but also builds on top of it to handle its unique challenges.

About Michael Galpin:
Michael Galpin is an architect at eBay. He has worked on various projects in the past including eBay Neighborhoods, the next generation of My eBay, as well as eBay’s own web development framework, V4.

Google Tech Talks
July 15, 2008

ABSTRACT

Google is the Web’s premier creator of user-friendly Web 2.0 applications, and we have long viewed it as part of our mission to do for users in the long tail (AKA users with special needs) what we’ve achieved for the mainstream user see this Google I/O talk entitled Design Patterns for Enhanced Accessibility for background. Accessibility 2.0 is now a hot topic on the Web and we would like to move from a world where AJAX applications were a straight No-No with respect to blind users to a world where these same technologies are used to enhance their usability for everyone.

Google-AxsJAX is an Open Source framework for injecting usability enhancements into Web 2.0 applications. In this talk, Charles Chen and T. V. Raman will give a hands-on tutorial on using AxsJAX. The tutorial will cover the following:

A brief introduction to the additional opcodes introduced by W3C ARIA to the embly language of the Web (AKA HTML+JavaScript).

AxsJAX library abstractions built on the above that help Web developers generate relevant feedback via the user’s adaptive technology of choice.

Steps in creating fluent eyes-free interaction to Web applications, including enabling rapid access to parts of a complex Web page.

The tutorial will provide a step-by-step walk through in defining AxsJAX enhancements to a Web page including:

An overview of the developer tools we use.

Discovering pain-points in Web interaction and designing improvements iteratively.

And time permitting, we might even demonstrate how Raman now makes up for all the time he save thanks to an efficient eyes-free auditory user interface by playing JawBreaker and reading XKCD via their AxsJAXed versions.

Note that writing AxsJAX enhancements to Web applications can help you win cool swag and bragging rights! The goal of this hands-on tutorial is to help you get there faster!

Speaker: T. V. Raman
T. V. Raman works on auditory interfaces and Web applications at Google.

Speaker: Charles L. Chen
