DESCRIPTION:
Nooron is a self-improving container for self-improving ideas. Nooron is server-side collaboration software which embraces and extends the World Wide Web, as it did to preceding protocols (ftp:, gopher:, telnet:, mail:, wais:). It uses a novel rating system based on user contributable subjective criteria in place of the single tacit criterion of 'goodness' typically employed. The resulting hyperdimensional 'subjective space' offers fresh opportunities for navigation, information discovery, filtering, presentation and the improvement of knowledge.
An integrated versioning technology results in Nooron being an information system which aggressively automates the evolution of its contents. The final twist is that by subjecting its own constituent artifacts (Vantages, WorldViews, DepictionStyles, ReviewPanels and many others) to such evolutionary pressure, Nooron becomes a self-improving system. Hence Nooron is a self-improving container for self-improving knowledge. QED.
