A little of History
The PandoraBox© Project begun about two years ago.
Me, Marcelo with my friend and current partner Andy, spent many nights,
with a beer in hand, analyzing and creating a new data model in order
to describe anything from real to imaginable at near human scale.
And more, this description should make sense to both, a person and
a machine. Our goal was to enable anybody to create fast and effortlessly,
with any available device, this little information chunks, and publish
them without any style or design constrains. All pieces should contain
some common properties along with other specific to the nature of
the described stuff.
We created also the concept of containers, in order to store them,
and also defined the access and search procedures. Then we designed
a browser to access and show them in some way, deciding by the way,
that a link should accumulate information rather than jumping around.
In this way, our data model was created, an now we are headed to give
it a try in the real world. |

The compact nature of our information pieces, makes them ideal to
be used with mobile devices.
Also, the easyest way to access an information using a cellphone,
is dialing a number.
¿What number?, very simple, a phone number.
