The following is a video of Tim Berners-Lee, and his talk on Ted titled The next Web of open, linked data
.
What Tim refers to is what we know today as the Semantic Web. I’ve done extensive research on this topic in my university years. As a matter of fact, back than, my motivation was to create a semantic search engine/portal to enable the open source community. The project was called GNUCITIZEN and today it is nothing like what it was originally intended to be.
The Semantic Web is a fascinating technology and only hope that people realize how important it is to humanity.
Although I had heard of the Semantic Web before it is great to hear about it from the guy who created the idea. I just love how enthusiastic he is about this stuff – you can tell how exciting he thinks this stuff is.
