Opening Up: A quick note from Matt McAlister (tag:open, information, semantic web)
Matt McAlister, over at the Guardian, wrote a fantastic piece earlier today about the way the Semantic Web has panned out; and you should definitely read it (http://www.mattmcalister.com/blog/2009/11/25/508/socially-linked-data/). I just wanted to snip out a simple quote from his post:
What do you think?
"Openness makes you more relevant. It creates opportunity. It’s a way into people’s hearts and minds. It’s empowering. It’s not hard to do. And once it starts happening it becomes apparent that it mustn’t and often can’t stop happening."
