We have been very much impressed by the video produced by the Service Web 3.0 project consortium and we decide to share it with our own visitors. In order to explain, promote, and attract new contributions, the consortium created a video to be viewed by non-experts about next generation of the Internet. We would not manage to produce a better video ourselves and we believe that this is probably these days the best movie explaining to non-experts of how the Web of Services (promoted also so much by seekda) could look like in the near future.
seekda continues to expand its technological leadership in the field of Web Service and e-commerce technologies through its research projects. Together with the Service-Finder consortium, which consist of prominent research organizations such as CEFRIEL, Ontoprise and University of Sheffield we would like to announce the release of the alpha version of the Service-Finder portal for Web Service discovery. Service-Finder project aims at developing a platform for service discovery in which Web Services are embedded in a Web 2.0 environment. Service-Finder portal has been build up on a comparable set of public Web Service descriptions as the ones available at seekda portal. The prototype provides extensions with semantic annotations (e.g. categorization) and Web 2.0 features. On the current alpha version of the portal users can search for services by doing free-text search or by browsing categories and/or tags. Once the Service-Finder technology is consolidated, seekda aims at integrating it into its own portal.
