Eric Miller talks about Zepheira and semantically enabling systems for the Semantic Technology conference
In our latest podcast I talk with Eric Miller, President of Zepheira. In this follow-up to our original podcast last year, we discuss a project Zepheira has been undertaking to simplify conference management and enrich the delegate experience at this year’s Semantic Technology conference. The systems they have developed demonstrate some of the ways in which semantic web technologies can be integrated with existing processes in order to deliver increased value and functionality.
During the conversation, we refer to the following resources;
- BrightContent
- Sir Tim Berners-Lee Talks about the Semantic Web podcast
- Dopplr
- Dublin Core
- FOAF
- GRDDL
- International Semantic Web Conference
- Linked Data Planet conference

- Eric Miller talks with Talis about the Semantic Web and Zepheira podcast
- OCLC

This conversation was conducted using Skype on Friday 14 March, recorded with Ecamm Network’s Call Recorder for Skype, and edited on a Mac with Garageband.

I think its the sort of thing where people could really start to understand the benefits of the semantic web – especially as conferences generate a bigger and bigger information cloud..
