Enabling the Distributed Family Tree

This is the official research blog for the Distributed Family Tree, an open network of genealogical data and metadata.  In a nutshell, the big idea is that we can combine all available genealogical information on the Internet into a single distributed network.  The foundation for this network is the substance of the Master's Thesis that I am currently working on.

Another Meeting With the Good Doctor

I had another meeting with the Good Doctor today. He was rather impressed with how quickly things are progressing. He became particularly excited when I mentioned the RDF database work I’ve done, at which point he began imagining how he’ll use it to enrich one of the classes that he’s currently teaching. I was pleased, of course, but I hope meeting that requirement doesn’t distract too much from completing the thesis as quickly as possible.
