google: looking for information for a stayinformation scatteredscattered information in one platform - collecting different information from different sources (architecture of information)ESN is facing the same problem university are facing
spontaneous growth of the galaxy with the evolution picturesdiscussion about how the architecture of the platform is in fact stimulating this growth: you give people tools instead of text/documents, and you aggregate existing informationdistributed versus non distributed
demo of the galaxy:introductionstatistics
other projects that follow the same idea (with screenshots)different contexts: galaxy of conference websites (Bologna Experts) - with central identity management system & conference websites that are tightly boundedErasmus Mundus: project to couple formal to non formal information - we are defining the standards to exchange master programmes between different universities
TAKE HOME MESSAGEfor universities we would like to do the same with formal information, and couple this information to the existing sources we already have (non formal information)practical example: Facebook integration with universities or google gadget for the galaxy - you install the application and it will serve you the information you need, eg from your section, parties, events, news etcinternet is a fast moving world: while 5-10 years ago the internet was an empty place with a lot of bad built houses and market places, now it is place that is well established with a well-built infrastructure: places like facebook and myspace attract a lot of attention - so instead of building your own "house" amidst of those giants and hope it will be visited, you have to take your stuff out to the markets that already exist: go bring your information to facebook, to myspace.
