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.

The following video reminds me of SecondLife, although I am not a big SL fan. Apart from the fact that the video is very futuristic, I do believe that one day we will be able to build virtual worlds like that and perhaps even live in them. I most certainly I will opt out from such an option.

A technology of that magnitude will change everything.

This video is pretty amazing. The funny thing is that the technology is not even new.

The technology of tomorrow is developed today.

Technology can enhance our lives, as long as it doesn’t take over control. A scary thought.
