Welcome to the PalaceHotel.org project
This is where PalaceHotel Software discusses their own PalaceHotel™ software projects. We expose or general philosophy here; or you can also read our blog.
PalaceHotel™ revolves around the idea of Computer-Aided Personal Intelligence, which involves a certain number of problems:
- how to gather personal information both on people's own devices (computers, iPhones,...) and online (gmail, flickr,...) (more...)?
- how to store our personal data in such a way that it is possible to cross-reference it; (more...)?
- how to filter this information and find out what is interesting and what is not; (more...)
- how to ensure confidentiality; (more...)?
- how to visualize this information in order to gain new insights and learn about ourselves when we consult it; (more...)?
- how to use this information to help us develop better behavioural patterns, improve our well-being and relationships with our environment, which is what Personal Intelligence is all about. (more...)?
In order to address these issues, PalaceHotel™ is composed of a number of components:
- a web repository, whose responsibility it is to centralize all of a user's data (open source) PIA;
- protocols and APIs to let services access this repository in a secure and confidential way (open source) PIAF?;
- Personal Intelligence Services, typically run on the server-side;
- a user-facing app for filtering and vizualizing? data (iPhone, closed-source)
