As mostly no one of you may know, gnowsis.com is moving out of our offices in two days, because inits.at, our incubation company, is moving to nicer offices, and so are we.

But that is not why this blog post: its instead about "I am legend - the Yoghurt". As we are moving, the refrigerator of the startup companies also has to be emptied. And as in any shared kitchen (as in shared appartments), this means legendary food items coming to light. And here, startups have to leave after 18 months, so we have a lot of history in this fridge. I will not talk about the obviously molding italian pasta in glasses from 2008 or the piccolo champagne bottle I just nicked (it has "Smart" written on it and is dated 2004, but sparkling wine can't go bad I guess, so probably thanks to the smarties, har har). But instead I will talk of the untouchable "I am legend - the Yoghurt".

Of course, as old Burning-Man-use-what-you-find enthousiast, I was cherry-picking through the leftovers to find some stash for myself. After picking up an excellent Red Bull Can which was already glued to the shelf by dried-up-whatever-liquid (and expired in 2009, so safe for me to enjoy) and behind glasses from 2006, there I found it: "I am legend".



A Yoghurt saying it went bad in Dezember, but I don't know which year. Here is a picture of its heavily dented top, which I leave for someone else to pierce.

KOffice has an extension for supporting RDF in its ODF format. As all is XML, this is an excellent way to go. Read Ben Martin's post about it.

Some excerpts:
The ODF document format lets you store RDF/XML data inside the document file, which in turn lets both a human reader and a computer know about things that comprise an office document. You can refer to a person, place, or time and have the computer know what you are saying without having to resort to heuristics.

Of course, you can drag and drop items from the RDF docker into kaddressbook and korganizer. These pieces of information should be able to be moved into and out of an ODF file using KOffice without thinking about it. You want to add Fred to the text, pick him up from your kaddressbook and drop him into the RDF docker. Your default contact stylesheet is then used to insert some text into the document at the current cursor location showing you the Fred contact. Quick and simple... Lets make RDF something everybody uses but nobody needs to learn about (unless they want to).

It also features a (silent) video:
