If autonomous vehicles takes off this will surely disrupt a lot of areas and change the way our cities are constructed and how we think about getting around. I know there are a lot of challenges and hurdles before this happens on a grand scale, but I am confident that we are moving in this direction. Given this, how would you bet on this today? Are there any companies, or types of companies, that you think could reap a lot of benefits of such a macro-scale development?

I'll go first; after a 10-years-or-so hiatus I finally got back at composing music, and completed 29 songs and 4 albums, this fall only: https://open.spotify.com/artist/4nxDh1lPq0EclBPMNXnYa3 and https://www.youtube.com/channel/UCgNm_EwMyLBrKp_kmdU3XoA

Hey there,

I am finding myself more and more releasing new music through various channels (Youtube, Spotify, Google Play etc), while lacking a "hub" keeping it all together, alongside basic information regarding the music as such and integrations with social site such as Facebook etc. I envision something quite visually appealing and "themable", similar to sites presenting portfolios of graphical artists (e.g. 500px, smugmug...), but custom-made for artists. Bonus point for including a social aspect and a discovery/recommendation system to be able to find new listeners.

My google-fu has failed me in finding this. Could anyone point me in the right direction?

Thanks!

I am trying find some form of a content management system not geared towards the publishing of web pages, but rather that of custom content. I am sure there is a name for these kinds of systems/applications, but I cannot come to think of it.

My basic requirements:

1) There needs to be a way to create templates for objects in a flexible manor, where a template is a set of attributes, with the ability to create nested groups of attributes as well as add attributes associated with other templates

2) Content instantiates these templates

3) Arbitrary sets of content needs to be exportable, preferably to custom XML

4) All this needs to be accessible through a decent management UI, web-based preferably. Ideally there is an API somewhere in there as well

What am I looking for? I feel that traditional CMS:es are too tied to that of web publishing. I guess I am looking for something a bit more generic.
