Jon Aizen on the Practical Semantic Web
The semantic web is a decade old vision promoted by web visionaries like Sir Tim Berners Li in which the Web will become a set of semantically interconnected "databases" for programs to interact with, mash together and in general make sense of it all. However, as a bottom up technological adoption approach, it has failed miserably and the web has continued to evolve as a messy technological babel tower. Jon Aizen, co-founder and CTO of Dapper, with his experience with managing large-scale, high-profile web projects like Alexa Internet and the Internet Archive, advocates a new, top-down approach that transforms the existing web into a semantic web, where every site becomes a semantically aware API, using a combination of structure analysis algorithms and user generated effort. In this interview recorded at GIDS 2008, he speaks about the semantic web, the promise it holds for Semantic Search. Jon also shares his outlook on Web 3.0.
