Spivack Nails the Semantic Web
// March 6th, 2008 // Semantic Web, tech
I’ve been doing quite a bit of reading on the Semantic Web lately, and its primary feature from the perspective of a writer is a difficulty of easy definition. It avoids simple sobriquet and isn’t explained without analogy and lengthy description.
The best way I have come to think of the whole system is as a set of perspectives, a way of looking at information in a network. Sir Tim Berners Lee described it using the Social Graph as an analogy, but Nova Spivack, from Radar Technologies, has a brilliant talk about the Graph which explains the concepts and history behind the Semantic Web:
