Data.gov APIs

Data.gov APIs
http://www.data.gov/developers/apis

Data.gov doesn’t just catalog raw data, it also includes APIs from across government. You can browse the current catalog for APIs, but expect this listing to grow as agencies include more of their APIs as part of their data.json metadata in Project Open Data. You can also find an extensive list of Federal Government APIs here on this page. This has been added to the tools section of Research Resources Subject Tracer™ Information Blog. This will be added to Script Resources Subject Tracer™. This will be added to Statistics Resources and Big Data Subject Tracer™.

Transmission – Fast, Easy and Free BitTorrent Client

March 13, 2014

Transmission – Fast, Easy and Free BitTorrent Client
http://www.transmissionbt.com/

Transmission is an open source, volunteer-based project. Unlike some BitTorrent clients, Transmission doesn’t play games with its users to make money: a) Transmission doesn’t bundle toolbars, pop-up ads, flash ads, twitter tools, or anything else; b) It doesn’t hold some features back for a payware version; c) Its source code is available for anyone to review; and d) They don’t track their users, and their website and forums have no third-party ads or analytics. Transmission is designed for easy, powerful use. We’ve set the defaults to “Just Work” and it only takes a few clicks to configure advanced features like watch directories, bad peer blocklists, and the web interface. When Ubuntu chose Transmission as its default BitTorrent client, one of the most-cited reasons was its easy learning curve. Unlike many cross-platform applications, Transmission integrates seamlessly with
your operating system. This will be added to the P2P section of Deep Web Research and Discovery Resources Subject Tracer™ and white paper. This will be added to Script Resources Subject Tracer™.

Data Compression Proxy

March 08, 2014

Data Compression Proxy
https://chrome.google.com/webstore/detail/data-compression-proxy/ajfiodhbiellfpcjjedhmmmpeeaebmep

This is an experimental extension for Google Chrome bringing Chrome Data Compression Proxy from mobile to desktop PCs. How it works: The extension sends all HTTP (but not HTTPS) traffic through Chrome Data Compression Proxy server, which uses SPDY protocol to speed up web browsing. Enabled state is indicated by a green icon. You can manually disable the proxy by clicking on the icon. When the proxy raises an error, it is being automatically disabled for 30 sec, so that the request can be resent. The extension uses either chrome.webRequest (slower) in Chrome Stable or chrome.declarativeWebRequest (faster) in Chrome Beta/Dev, so ignore any warnings.

Ontopia is an open source suite of tools for building applications based on Topic Maps, providing features like an ontology designer, an instance data editor, a full-featured query language, web service access points, database storage, and so on. The product suite is highly mature. Ontopia 1.0 was released in June 2001, and we are now nearing the release of Ontopia 5.1. Ontopia has been in production use in a number of commercial projects on three continents for many years now, and the core engine has been very stable over most of that period. Ontopia is open source and released under the Apache License 2.0. The entire product is released as open source. There are no proprietary add-ons which are necessary to run it, or to make it suitable for an enterprise setting. Commercial support, however, is available. Ontopia is being actively maintained and developed by the committers which include two people who have worked on the product for more than a decade, as well as new project participants from Germany, the Netherlands, Belgium, and Norway. The Google Code site has a live feed of recent activity. This will be added to Script Resources Subject Tracer™.
