Machine-readable

Nova Spivack of Radar Networks gave a talk on “Making Sense of the Semantic Web” at The Next Web Conference 2008. It’s getting a lot of citation as a timely simplification of the “semantic, web3.0” jargon.

The most interesting point is probably that Nova sees semantic as a movement to put meaning in the data rather than in apps in order to make it machine-readable. He argues that this need for increasing data linkage for machines will make the web infrastructurally more open.
