meaggregator
The aim of this project is to develop an open source application that can be web based or on the desktop, that will serve as a MeAggregator. The MeAggregator will configure the total set of technologies that an individual is using at a specific point of time, on a flexible and modular basis. The specific objectives are to:
- Produce an aggregator framework, on which to base modular development;
- Provide a tool for students and staff to manage their online communities and channels, through advanced use of content aggregation technologies such as RSS and others;
- Provide seamless access to academic content in institutionally-owned systems;
- Provide a new space in which to create academic-related content, which can subsequently be remixed with their personal content in any way they wish;
- Provide access to a new source of academic online communities that will foster links across disparate groups of students and staff who may not normally meet, yet share similar interests;
- Provide a large social network of students and staff through which the dissemination of ideas can more easily flow.
