Tim Berners-Lee at TED

There has been quite a bit of discussion about Tim's appearance at TED - so, here's the video:



Obviously not a technical talk; nevertheless I was quite amused that neither OWL nor Ontologies were mentioned at all :)

Ok, so its a neat talk but I wish he would explain why "linked data" is so much better than plain traditional web documents. Its not more powerful because its linked but because computers can actually use the data.

The genomics example was a bit misleading too because that problem could be solved by a central database. The neat thing in the semantic web would not be that you could see all the relationships but that anyone could add to this database where you can see relationships.
