<Title>Breslin on the Social Semantic Web, 1:00pm Tue 7/22</Title>
<Tagline>Dr. John Breslin Talks on the Semantic Web Meets the Social</Tagline>
<Body>
<![CDATA[
    <div class="html-content">
    <p> <strong>Note time change to 1:00pm</strong></p>
    <p>Dr.  John Breslin of the National University of Ireland, Galway will talk about his research on the "Social Semantic Web" at <strike>10:30am</strike> <strong>1:00pm</strong><strong><strong> Tuesday, 22 June in ITE 325b ITE.</strong></strong></p>
    <strong><strong>
    <p>The Social Web, a platform where people are connecting through their shared objects of interest, is encountering some boundaries in the areas of information integration, portability, search, and demanding tasks like querying. The Semantic Web is an ideal platform for interlinking and performing operations on the diverse data available from Social Web "data silos", and has produced a variety of approaches to overcome some of the limitations with the Social Web. In this talk, Breslin will describe some applications of Semantic Web technologies to the Social Web. In particular, he will focus on the SIOC (Semantically-Interlinked Online Communities) framework which can be used to describe social website structures, enabling data exports and information sharing for social media contributions. SIOC is one of the metadata formats used in Drupal 7, and has been deployed in Yahoo!  SearchMonkey/BOSS, OpenLink Data Spaces, BlogEngine.NET, Newsweek.com and various other sites/apps.</p>
    <p><a href="http://www.johnbreslin.com/" rel="nofollow external" class="bo">Dr. Breslin</a> is a lecturer in the School of Engineering and Informatics at NUI Galway, Ireland. He is also co-leader of the Social Software Unit at DERI, NUI Galway, where he is researching the Social Semantic Web (he recently co-authored a book on this topic). Breslin is the founder of the SIOC project, which aims to interlink online communities with semantic technologies. He has received a number of web awards, including two IIA Net Visionary awards in 2005 and 2006 for the community website boards.ie Ltd., which he co-founded in 2000. Breslin is also an advisor to CrowdGather LLC, and owner/editor of <a href="http://www.socialmedia.net" rel="nofollow external" class="bo">Social Media Ltd.</a>.</p>

<Title>Infochimps Provides API for Their Twitter and Census...</Title>
<Body>
<![CDATA[
    <div class="html-content">Full Title: Infochimps provides API for their Twitter and Census datasets
    
    <p>Infochips now offers a <a href="http://api.infochimps.com/" rel="nofollow external" class="bo">query API</a> for two interesting datasets: a Twitter collection and US Census data. </p>
    <p>The Twitter data covers 500M tweets from 35M users collected between March 2006 and November 2009.  The API currently included the following services.</p>
    <ul>
    <li> Trstrank – a trust metric for Twitter users based on network centrality  (see <a href="http://trst.me/" rel="nofollow external" class="bo">trst.me</a>:<br>
    <blockquote><p>
    <a href="http://api.infochimps.com/soc/net/tw/trstrank.json?screen_name=SarahPalinUSA">http://api.infochimps.com/soc/net/tw/trstrank.json?screen_name=SarahPalinUSA</a>
    </p></blockquote>
    </li>
    <li>Wordbag – returns the 100 tokens (i.e., words) that a particular Twitter user tweets more often than the average Twitter user.<br>
    <blockquote><p>
    <a href="http://api.infochimps.com/soc/net/tw/wordbag.json?screen_name=ladygaga">http://api.infochimps.com/soc/net/tw/wordbag.json?screen_name=ladygaga</a>
    </p></blockquote>
    </li>
    <li> Influencer metrics – replies in/out and retweets in/out for a given user<br>
    <blockquote><p>
    <a href="http://api.infochimps.com/soc/net/tw/influence.json?screen_name=algore">http://api.infochimps.com/soc/net/tw/influence.json?screen_name=algore</a>
    </p></blockquote>
    </li>
    <li> Conversations – find interactions between two users.  Currently this just yields direct messages but will include retweets and mentions later.  For example, check out conversations between Lady Gaga and Sarah Palin:<br>
    <blockquote><p>
    <a href="http://api.infochimps.com/soc/net/tw/conversation.json?user_a_id=14230524&amp;user_b_id=65493023">http://api.infochimps.com/soc/net/tw/conversation.json?user_a_id=14230524&amp;user_b_id=65493023</a>
    </p></blockquote>
    </li>
    </ul>

    <div class="html-content">Full Title: UMBC Computer Science Graduate Selected to Head Johns Hopkins Applied Physics LaboratoryCONTACT:
    Anthony Lane
    Communications Manager
    (410) 455-5793
    <a href="mailto:alane@umbc.edu" rel="nofollow external" class="bo">alane@umbc.edu</a>
    
    Ralph Semmel, who completed his doctorate in computer science at the University of Maryland, Baltimore County (UMBC) in 1992, has been selected to become the next director of the Johns Hopkins University Applied Physics Lab (APL). 
    
    APL, located in Laurel, Md., has close to 5,000 employees conducting and supporting research related to national defense and security. 
    
    Semmel, who finished his degree in 1992, focused his dissertation research at UMBC on the problem of how to get information from a database without knowing beforehand how the database is structured.
    
    “He was an extraordinary student,” said James Mayfield, who was Semmel’s thesis advisor at UMBC. “He was not only academically rigorous, but he also accomplished a lot.”
    
    Mayfield, who now works at Hopkins’ Human Language Technology Center of Excellence, said he’s also been impressed with the leadership skills Semmel has shown during his 23-year career with APL.
    
    Semmel will begin his new position July 1, replacing Richard Roca to become the eighth director of APL in the laboratory’s 68-year history. 
    
    UMBC President Freeman Hrabowski praised Semmel’s accomplishments.
    
    “We are extremely proud of Ralph Semmel and the leadership role he is taking at one of our nation’s foremost research centers.”
    
    Semmel is a graduate of the U.S. Military Academy at West Point, and he completed master’s degrees at Hopkins and the University of Southern California.</div>

<Title>ADD Your Summer Internship, Co-Op, or Research Position...</Title>

    <div class="html-content">Full Title: ADD your Summer Internship, Co-op, or Research Position to your Transcript
    
    Have you found an internship, co-op, or research position, but just don't know how to get it listed on your transcript or get credit for it this summer?  Do you want a notation on your transcript for all your hard work, but are unsure how to proceed?
    
    Well look no further!  The staff at the UMBC Shriver Center is here to help!  
    
    If you found an internship, co-op, or research position on your own for the summer already, you can get the notation on your transcript (FREE OF CHARGE) - and be on your way to possibly receiving credit- its not too late.  The deadline is July 14th.
    
    <strong>TO ADD INTERNSHIP/CO-OP/RESEARCH TO YOUR TRANSCRIPT:</strong>
       1. Either call (410-455-2493) or stop by the Shriver Center on the ground floor of the Public Policy Building to make an appointment with a Coordinator.
       2. Get a letter/memo from your employer (on company letterhead) verifying that you are interning at least 8-10 hours per week and bring it to your appointment.
       3. Meet with a Shriver Coordinator to get enrolled in the Practicum (to have your internship/research noted on your transcript as a university sanctioned experience) and have your potential credit options explained to you.
       4. Enjoy your internship, co-op, or research position this summer!
    
    <strong>If you DO NOT  have an internship lined up but are interested in obtaining one, we’ll be glad to help you with that as well. </strong> To begin the process of finding an internship through the Shriver Center and UMBCworks, visit <a href="http://shrivercenter.umbc.edu/student_howdoigetstarted.html" rel="nofollow external" class="bo">http://shrivercenter.umbc.edu/student_howdoigetstarted.html</a>
    That link will detail exactly what you need to do.
    
    The Shriver Center (1st fl Public Policy) is OPEN from 8:30 am to 5:00 PM Monday through Friday, so stop in or make your appointment soon!  
    
    Questions e-mail <a href="mailto:shrivercenter@umbc.edu" rel="nofollow external" class="bo">shrivercenter@umbc.edu</a>&gt; or call 410-455-2493
    
    We look forward to working with you.</div>
