Simple fileshare service – proof of concept
I’ve just concluded my proof of concept tests with Google App Engine (Java version) – and so far I’m happy!
I am writing a simple file-sharing service – I tend to use the term ‘drop-box’ a lot when explaining about it. The concept has now been proven (sending e-mails back and forth – log-in – upload – storage etc.) so now I am looking for some cool graphics/icons on iconfinder to make it look good.
I will post a more thorough description of the application – with links – as soon as I’m done with the first public version.
Bayesian filtering
Currently I’m thinking a lot about Bayesian filtering and new ways to apply this to my every day software.
For those who aren’t that informed on the subject I would recommend reading A Plan for Spam by Paul Graham. Wikipedia has a few articles of interest as well. I’d recommend the ones on Bayes’ theorem and Bayesian spam filtering.
Currently I see a lot of areas where this technique can be applied – generally everything evolve around e-mails, RSS-feeds and automatic web-site crawling.
I hope that I’ll have the time in the near future to actually implement something.
