+This mini tutorial describes a good way to start (what to install, what to configure).
+
+== Install user observation ==
+
+Homepage of the user observation plugins for Mozilla Firefox + Thunderbird:
+http://dragontalk.opendfki.de/
+  - http://dragontalk.opendfki.de/wiki/Firefox_userobs     -> XPI to install
+  - http://dragontalk.opendfki.de/wiki/Thunderbird_userobs -> XPI to install
+
+Please install the Firefox Plugin first. You can install the one for Thunderbird later on.
+For Thunderbird you have to save the XPI, install it in Thunderbird and customize Thunderbird's toolbar.
+
+
+== Download User Observation Hub ==
+
+Homepage where the User Observation Hub is hosted:
+http://usercontext.opendfki.de/
+  - http://usercontext.opendfki.de/wiki/UserObservationHub
+  - class de.dfki.km.usercontext.userobservationhub.StartUserObservationHub
+
+Just start the User Observation Hub by starting the class
+de.dfki.km.usercontext.userobservationhub.StartUserObservationHub
+as Java application.
+
+After you succeeded to install the Firefox XPI and start the class above,
+you must configure the user observation plugin (in Firefox and Thunderbird)
+by clicking the new icon at the very right of the Firefox toolbar:
+
+
+__insert_image_here__
+
+
+Click at the rightmost icon ("EPOS") and enter the following data for Port and Service
+into the following dialog popping up:
+
+
+__insert_image_here__
+
+
+The information to enter is also printed out in the shell of the Java
+application when starting the user observation hub:
+
+
+__insert_image_here__
+
+
+
+After this you should already see some RDF chunks of NOPs (Native Operations),
+e.g. when you browse some web pages with Firefox:
+
+
+__insert_image_here__
+
+
+
+Don't worry about the exceptions coming up. These come up due to the fact,
+that the UOH currently expects some listeners used by us in the Mymory
+project. Most probably, these listeners are not available on your machine (yet).
+
+Therefore, later on you could create a new starter class or modify the
+class de.dfki.km.usercontext.userobservationhub.StartUserObservationHub
+to match the user observation listeners you have on your PC.
+So, instead of this remote listener:
+{{{
+  RemoteUserObsListener remoteListener2 = new RemoteUserObsListener(
+          "localhost", 9998, "MyUserObservationHub_Listener" );
+  userobshub.addUserObservationListener( remoteListener2 );
+}}}
+you can add your own listener that listens to the NOPs sent by the UOH.
+So, if you have an XML-RPC listener running on the same machine on port
+12345 with handler "userobs", then you should add these lines:
+{{{
+  RemoteUserObsListener mylistener = new RemoteUserObsListener(
+          "localhost", 12345, "userobs" );
+  userobshub.addUserObservationListener( mylistener );
+}}}

+an email to sven.schwarz@dfki.de

+Have fun!
