Demo Fall 2006: MindTouch

Introducing the DekiBox Smart Appliance - addresses the “information is too hard to manage and share” problem.

The DekiBox provides templating on top of a Wiki platform. They are grabbing unstructured data, creating loosely structured data, and then mashing it up with external data to provide more structure.

MindTouch is trying to get us to use e-mail better. They are demonstrating pasting an e-mail thread into the Editor and it is converted automatically into a structured thread.

The box provides software-as-a-service on your network. The device is plug-and-play. It backs up automatically. It is completely self-managing.
