Netlogo

Technology
Wut is netlogo? - logo was a simple graphical programming environment based on the idea of turtlegraphics developed in the early 80's(I believe) to teach kids programming. In turtle graphics, turtles are pens that can draw in color in a window. The language of logo has all the ( or most of the) control structures that other languages have.

NetLogo is the most recent generation of the lineage of Logo. It is a massively multi-agent language. Its pretty hierarchiocal and oop. It is very graphic. It is heavily supported at Northwestern. It should become the next foldit.

Who is Hadoop? Wut is Hadoop? - Hadoop is about the engineering of quantifiers. All, some, many, these, those, most, more than 5. These terms have a power now that didn't exist before. Today, this instant, you can enumerate trillions of things. In seconds. And we do it casually. Many times a day. Everyday.

Wut is the Google species of Elephant? It seems appropriate to call the species of which Hadoop is an instance Elephants. The origins of MapReduce lie at Google I think.

Project: extend netlogo with PigLatin primitives.

 * PigLatin is the language by which you program a Hadoop Engine
 * instant and serious upgrade in PigLatin and its UI


 * accessible very high level programming language
 * multiprocessing support
 * handle hellah large structures

Business? Maybe.
We want to know if netlogo can go foldit?

could the transfer of mmo social infrastructure in the foldit model be extended to a netlogo modeling domain?

if it could be done, t'would be a big pop to learning.

why did we stop learning to program?

learn netlogo

how could it be supported?

how could it be promoted? as a percentage of global internet pop

how many want to learn?

Implement on iPad and others.

netlogo is about managing

large groups

and huge data

It needs to be packaged with Hadoop engines.

Yahoo uses Hadoop. So do many others.

People
Dream.In.Code is an expert virtual community for hackers, those with skill in coding. It is an elegant and sophisticated club compared to linked in and face book. It has experts. It has links. It has code. It has training. It has documentation and references. It has staggering scope. It has "guns" for hire.

Business? Maybe.
Dream.In.Code represents a X% share of the code writing community. That community calls a lot of shots at the staff level in the technology arena, hard, soft, communications, design, consulting, execution. Using the word community too much. Highly targeted. Very low cost to reach. Ads/links targeted at the consumer of services too.
