TED talk: Tim Berners-Lee on Linked Data

Tim Berners-Lee, inventor of the World Wide WebAt a recent TED talk, Sir Tim Berners-Lee shared what could be a powerful idea about the future of the Web. To summarize, he wants web sites to offer linked raw data in machine readable form. That way, computers could combine data from all over the Web, understand how it’s all related, and then manipulate and display it in interesting ways. Berners-Lee’s idea would result in far more data being available than the relatively limited amount of data Wolfram|Alpha has access to.
