\nSir Tim Berners-Lee<\/a>, often credited as the inventor of the World Wide Web and also Director of the World Wide Web Consortium, recently chatted with my colleague Paul Miller as part of our Talking with Talis Podcast Series<\/a>.\n<\/p>\n

You can listen to the podcast here<\/a>, or download the mp3 from here<\/a>. Alternatively you can read the full transcript here<\/a>.<\/p>\n

It’s a excellent podcast which I’ll recommend to anyone who is interested in understanding the Semantic Web. It’s a far ranging discussion in which Tim talks about a number of issues ranging from the importance of Linked Data to the perceived Readiness of the Semantic Web and it’s mainstream adoption.<\/p>\n

I thoroughly enjoyed listening to the podcast and in some ways it felt good to get the sense that as an organisation we are actually building the sorts of technologies that will help bring Tim’s vision to life.<\/p>\n

\nI think\u00e2\u20ac\u00a6 we\u00e2\u20ac\u2122ve got all the pieces to be able to go ahead and do pretty much everything\u00e2\u20ac\u00a6 you should be able to implement a huge amount of the dream, we should be able to get huge benefits from interoperability using what we\u00e2\u20ac\u2122ve got. So, people are realizing it\u00e2\u20ac\u2122s time to just go do it.\n<\/p><\/blockquote>\n

I totally agree with Tim, at Talis we have done exactly that, we have invested a lot of time and effort into building our Semantic Web Platform<\/a> which is currently underpinning many of our next generation products. And allowing us to collaborate with others on some pretty interesting projects. The Semantic Web is fast becoming a reality and it feels pretty awesome riding this particular wave at the moment.<\/p>\n

I’m also pretty excited at the moment Rob, Tom, Paul, Me and Chris will all be attending the LinkedData Workshop at WWW2008<\/a> next month in Beijing. Rob and I will be presenting our paper<\/a> – which should be great fun.<\/p>\n

So if any of you are out there and want to find out more about us and what we are doing come along and have a chat!<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
