Notes on Tim Berners-Lee talk


A few random (semantically speaking) notes.

Other highlights of the evening were his response to a comment that the semantic web was a ‘top-down project’.  “Who told you that!?”, he asked in disbelief, in a moment of clarification that will surely live with the questioner for some time.”

TBL’s slides. BTW they’re not working properly at the moment in IE7.

Nice to see she’s got a professional interest in museums too.
