Talking with Phase2 Technology about Drupal, semantic technologies and opportunities in Government
In my latest podcast I talk with Jeff Walpole, Frank Febbraro and Irakli Nadareishvili of Washington-based Phase2 Technology. We discuss the company’s work with open source solutions such as Drupal, and explore their efforts to integrate semantic technologies including Thomson Reuters’ Open Calais web service into the widely deployed content management system. Finally, we discuss the growing opportunity to make Government data more usefully available via these tools.
During the conversation, we refer to the following resources;
- Tim Berners-Lee’s note on Putting Government Data online
- data.gov
- DBpedia
- Drupal
- Freebase
- Musicbrainz
- Open Calais
- Open Calais modules for Drupal
- Open Publish
- Sunlight Foundation
- Tattler
- Thomson Reuters
- Jeff Walpole’s blog post, ‘The Linked Data.gov experiment‘
- World Bank
This conversation was recorded on Tuesday 14 July, 2009.
