Abstract :
The object-blog service application automatically converts raw sensor data to environment-generated content (EGC), including texts, graphs, and figures. This conversion facilitates data searching and browsing. Generated content can serve several purposes, including memory aids, security, and communication media. In object-blog, personified objects automatically post entries to a Weblog about sensor data obtained from sensors attached to the objects. Feedback thus far from participants working with object-blog in an experimental environment has been positive.
