Personal Proxies and Weblog Software features will percolate to Portal software Personal Proxy doomed ? [meltsner] Melstner is a  Portal guy like me. He expresses doubts about the Personal Proxy chances of success. I agree with the fact that the requirement to configure it yourself is a drawback for wide adoption. But I nevertheless think this is an important trend that will unfold in 2 directions: for power users, Personal Proxies and Weblog Software (such as Radio) will continue to expand in terms of features and give their users ever more control in their information management and filtering practices. These features will percolate in Portal products: I'm thinking about how to integrate some of them in the Portal product I work on. In this case these kind of features will be available to regular users on a preconfigured basis, maybe with a less fine grained level control. I intend to write a paper about this for BlogTalk - A European Conference on Weblogs in Vienna 23-24 May 2003, if I ever find the time to do it ! 11:07:34 AM    comment []
