intro
Atomate can be used to remind you of a calendar event,
especially if that event is dependent on something normally
hard to check. For instance, you may have a meeting with a
colleague, but you only want to be reminded if the colleague
is actually in their office (and if you aren't already
there). Atomate lets you set a rule to say: "when I have an
upcoming meeting in my calendar with [colleague], alert me if
that colleague enters the office, and I am not near his
office". The locations of events, places or friends can be
used in other ways too. For instance, you may often forget to
take your shopping list to the grocery store. Atomate lets you
create your shopping list at home, and a rule that says "when
I am near the grocery store, text me my shopping list".
how does it work?
Atomate, treats feeds from social networking and
life-tracking sites as sensor streams, integrating
information from such feeds into a simple
unified RDF world model
representing people, places and things and their
time-varying states and activities. Combined with other
information sources on the web, including the your online
calendar, web-based e-mail client, news feeds and messaging
services, Atomate can be made to automatically carry out a
variety of simple tasks, ranging from context-aware
filtering and messaging, to sharing and social coordination
actions. Atomate's open architecture and world model easily
accommodate new information sources and actions via the
addition of feeds and web services. To make the system easy
to use, Atomate provides a constrained-input natural
language interface (CNLI) for behavior specification, and a
direct-manipulation interface for inspecting and updating
its world model.
