DataPortability: In-Motion Podcast

I just had the pleasure of being a guest on DataPortability: In-Motion Podcast - Episode 7. Trent has show notes over there. It’s got quite a bit of discussion about the role of Semantic Web technologies in DataPortability, some argument about the role of microformats (a transitional technology, or an end in themselves?), some stuff on business aspects of the Web (not exactly my forte) a little handwaving about Talis (should have been better prepared for that - but I often forget we’re a commercial entity :-)

Notable quote (not from me, more’s the pity):

Doesn’t matter how big you are, the Web is always bigger

The interview part is preceded by a segment on some legal aspects to DP, along with the news of MySpace and others announcing they are further opening up their systems. The news came after the interview was recorded, in case it seems strange it wasn’t mentioned.

The Semantic Web Gang has a new home

April’s episode of the Semantic Web Gang has just been released, and we’ve created a new site to gather all the episodes and their supporting materials together.

This month,

“regular members are joined by special guest Georgi Kobilarov from the Free University of Berlin. We discuss Bret Taylor’s notion of a ‘Wikipedia for Data,’ and look at the role that semantic technologies should play in connecting diverse pieces of data together within and between organisations.

Recorded just before the recent World Wide Web Conference in Beijing, the discussion also explores the possibility of a disconnect between academic and commercial conference-goers, asks whether or not this gap is real and (if real) a problem.”

Semantic Web Gang episodes also continue to be syndicated by ReadWriteWeb’s podcast arm, ReadWriteTalk, and by semanticweb.com.

Eric Miller talks about Zepheira and semantically enabling systems for the Semantic Technology conference

Eric Miller

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.
