Tim Berners-Lee1 gave an enthusiastic talk about linked data at TED, urging everybody to get their data out there or, if they don’t have any, to demand access to data in a proper format.
Interestingly, he didn’t mention the words “Semantic Web” once during the talk, nor did he ever say “RDF” or even “URI” – instead he spoke about “names starting with ‘http’”. Cool enough, his slides had the dog food data set in them! :)
A video of the talk and a link to the slides can be found on the ebiquity blog.
1I wish this link would lead me to something nice when I go to it with a Web browser!
where can I found a Text version of Tim Berners Lee’s talk?
