Abstract
During the last one and a half year that Webble World have been officially available to the public, the number of Webbles have more than doubled and the core platform have gone through numerous iterations of additional functions and improvements of existing ones. Now at the later part of 2012, Webbles are being used and developed for a multitude of exciting projects ranging from a Cancer research and trial manager, virtual lab and e-learning environments to an online sensor data visualization dash board and a nuclear research data editor. But Webble World it is not only about the big projects, it is equally as much, if not more, about the small home-made compound Webbles and tiny tools and leisure applications for personal improvement of the web experience that anyone can do on their own; and also there, Webble World have taken many steps forward with several mini games and web content displays. And of course, at the core of all this progress lies the new primitive Webble building blocks with their generic interfaces and inspiring features that have been developed by a constantly growing group of low layer developers from many parts of the world. If Webble World is here to stay, or if it is just another step towards the final realization of the knowledge federation meme media concept and the IntelligentPad technology, only time may tell, but the fact remains that it is happening now and we are along for the ride at the front seat.
