Hey, how about streamhacker.com? I think I’d put myself in the “often” category.

Thanks

Hi Jason, thanks for including us in the list. At JamiQ, we use a combination of dependency grammar, fixed grammar rules and wordnet ontology to derive sentiments. We also investigate into existing social networks and a variety of web metrics to determine influence of people.

We are very research intensive. As such, if you are interested in doing a project together (whether for or non profit), we welcome your proposals. We are happy to dedicate resources to interesting projects. A half-page description will more than suffice.

Jason, if we find something new, we will leave a comment here. Thank you for putting this list together!

Jason, this is a great list and you’ve done a fine public service here! I tweeted it at http://twitter.com/kasrthomas.

Sorry, I meant Powerset’s blog, not their company. They don’t seem to have posted since the news.

And I agree with your comment over on language log: I’m sure the vast majority of dissertations in NLP/CL are being missed because they simply aren’t being classified as linguistics but as CS.

The job postings for CL keep coming. I see new ones every day in my dice alerts, which I have turned off twice but since they refuse to obey I gave up. So actually, that number might not be so skewed. I doubt there have been as many CL dissertations produced in the last few months as there have been jobs I’ve seen listed.

Awesome list! You may want to take a quick look-see over at Language Log to see the recent spate of postings about “jobs in linguistics” which you are now officially well-qualified to comment on.

Also, Powerset is NOT defunct! They’ve simply been absorbed by the great goo of Microsoft. Rumor has it, MS paid $100 million for them. That’s a modest sum – ahem – if you consider that average VC funded CL companies have $30-$50 million invested. That’s maybe 2-1 for their money (VC guys are usually looking for at least 10-1 because so many of their ventures fail).

Maybe I’ll do just that. :-)

There are some difficulties to my doing so, but I’ll try to figure them out.

Well, David, consider this encouragement to write more about it then! :)

Niels, I updated your title above. I also updated the link to go to your blog rather than to your main page.

While I’ve no problem being linked here I think it’s probably a bit of a stretch to say I even occasionally blog about computational linguistics / NLP. :-) I do work in it, and I’d like to write more about it, but so far this fact is very very under-represented on my blog.

That said, thanks for the great list!

Thanks for this post. Now a have to feed my feedreader. And thanks for the link. By the way, I guess my blog is called “Niels Ott – CL Blog” for now, which isn’t very fancy. I should give it another name some when.
