Video: Nova Spivack “Making Sense of the Semantic Web”
Written on June 3, 2008 – 10:31 am
Boris Veldhuijzen van Zanten,
Here is the full presentation that Nova Spivack, technology visionary and entrepreneur and currently CEO and Founder of Radar Networks, gave at The Next Web Conference 2008 titled “Making Sense of the Semantic Web”. Erick Schonfeld called it “one of the clearest explanations of the semantic Web I’ve heard so far” and wrote an excellent article about some of the issues discussed in the presentation. Our hard bloggin’ scientist Anne Helmond also wrote an insightful summary of this presentation and several blogs like ReadWriteWeb referred to this post when they covered the ongoing discussion about the semantic web.
