Talking with John Sheridan about e-Government, Open Data and Linked Data
In my latest podcast I talk with John Sheridan, Head of e-Services at the UK Government’s Office of Public Sector Information (OPSI). John is also co-chair of the World Wide Web Consortium’s e-Government Interest Group, and we discuss both roles in the context of current enthusiasm for making Government data more readily available online.
