Last week I got the initial visualization, but the integrated data seemed to have some mistakes. One large cluster of four webinar followers moved away from the central big cluster. It means that none of followers in that webinar cluster followed other SNS accounts. However, it was confirmed that some users in the Continue reading Week Five
This week I spent time hanging out with Sun, Jean, Mr. McMillan and the crew. These are the names of personas, developed by the Socio-cultural and Usability & Assessment Working Groups. They are constructs, based on researcher profiles, surveys, interviews and life experience, and they represent a broad range of Continue reading With a little help from my (virtual) friends
This week, I continued working on the REST API documentation for the Earth Science Ontology Repository backend source code. The API is according to the DataONE API format. I had generated documentation for basic modules last week, and this week, I focused on the main modules and I had created Continue reading Week 4: Update on ESOR
This is week is full of coding and visualization. Eventually, I collected all SNS data. To see the overlap between followers from different SNS account, I decided to use names as identifier (because email address is not available). I cleaned data collected from different SNS account, split identifiers, integrated all Continue reading Week Four
I just finished week four of my internship. This week was full of researching and struggling through problems.

Lots of interest in best practices generally, and in the upcoming webinars. Looking at audience for the last Continue reading Who Do You Think You’re Talking To?
I just finished week three of my internship with DataONE. The days are going by much faster and there are more and more things to do. This week, I worked with a lot of the functionality of Yes Workflow and trying to integrate these things into the User Interface that Continue reading Week 3: Interactive Views for Workflows
This is week is full of fun. I started collecting different kinds of data and had chances to learn from previous SNS analysis. The SNS analysis is complex but interesting, which is very attractive to me. The biggest problem I had was to integrate people’s information from different social network. Before collecting data, Continue reading Week Three
This week I worked on generating the REST API document for the Earth Science Ontology Repository backend source code. The API is according to the DataONE API format. Generating REST API document for ESOR requires basic understanding of the core functionalities. I went through the ESOR source code and learnt Continue reading Week 3: Update on ESOR
Lots of reading this week including my favorite “Using photographs to show the effects of climate change on flowering times”1. The photographs in the study were taken from 1900 to 1921 and were used by the authors to show that flowers are blooming earlier in the year. For me it Continue reading How Long Has This Been Going On?
