TIDDLER: Tailored Travel Guides

Your own personal tour guide - anywhere!

Tiddler is a prototype system for delivering tailored information to users. Tiddler combines structured information from databases with text from existing web pages to deliver information tailored  both to the user and the delivery medium.

The information is tailored for delivery to a full-featured web browser or a hand held device like a personal organiser. As screen size decreases, there is a need to reformat information while preserving meaning and clarity. Tiddler is designed to automate this process.

Tiddler technology is applicable in any situation where tailoring of information from diverse sources is required to deliver value-added services to customers. (more)
