A Tale of Two Titles
Rob spoke at xtech earlier in the month with a title taken straight from the 'keep-it-snappy school of speaking'. The talk covered some of the ground of Muddy Boots phase 1 and also the current work we're doing with phase 2. We hope to say a little bit more about Phase II soon. We got lots of good feedback and the general thrust of the talk, around creating semantic richness for a given piece of content from existing web resources, is topical judging by some of the other talks at xtech. Consistent and well architected data [e.g. wikipedia and its offshoots] are providing good building blocks and we seem to be finally all moving on from talking about the semantic web to creating [a loosely joined] version.
May also saw another BBC project kick off. Followme came out of the BBC Labs in Masham in April. Rob's thinking through a catchy, technical working title for the project at the moment :) More to come later in the summer.
