Gwibber and Zeitgeist – Another Case of Implicit Relating

Gwibber and Zeitgeist – Another Case of Implicit Relating
Seif: “Hey computer, I want to see what I was doing when Ryan Paul wrote his tweet about how to turn on Gwibber’s multicolumn view!”
Computer: “Well, tell me what files you were using then or where they are located!”
Seif: “Mmh, I was programming and listening to music.”
Computer: “That can be a lot of files, man. Tell me more!”
Seif: “OK, I just remembered that python file I was working on and I now also remember one artist and one song title of the music I was listening to at that time.”
Computer: “Great! Now tell this information to me, one at a time, and I’ll provide you the files.”
Seif: “Urgs!”

The below video demonstrates that Seif’s computer can do better, if it has Zeitgeist running.
So, the above dialogue becomes considerably shorter to look something like this:
Seif: “Hey computer, I want to see what I was doing when Ryan Paul wrote his tweet about how to turn on Gwibber’s multicolumn view!”
Computer: “Here you are!”
Seif: “Thanks!”
Implicit Relating via the WHILE-Operator in a User’s Query
Today, a user who wants to get back to what s/he was doing while perceiving or doing something else is given a hard time. Why? Well, because this user is not supplied with a direct link to the information X, which was used while Y happened, upon provision of that Y.
Here is how Zeitgeist solves the riddle: In the above video, Y is a tweet, which can be interpreted as an event because it has a timestamp. Zeitgeist takes the tweet, looks up the contemporaries, and provides them. Thereby, Zeitgeist enables the user to re-find X within a click from Y.
In the shown prototype implementation, Zeitgeist searches for the user’s activities within a five minute radius around the tweet’s timestamp and delivers those files, which have been involved in the activities. So Zeitgeist’s answer can be read like this: “While Ryan sent out his tweet, you were working on actions.py and listening to music.”
Stay tuned!
