Abstract
Abstract: Linked Data is a new Term
(http://www.w3.org/DesignIssues/LinkedData ) coined up by Tim
Berners-Lee, the inventor of HTTP+URI+HTML. The newly created Web
( http://www.w3.org/2009/Talks/0204-ted-tbl/#(13) ), called the
Linking Open Data Cloud by the Semantic Web community, consists of
multiple databases connected together and it is enlarging in a rapid
pace. I'll talk about conceptual stuff. I want to convince you that
the Semantic Web is about hard and boring work, just like the HTML Web,
and it is not just about research. I'll explain the business motive
of the term "Linked Data" as a buzzword. The talk would be conducted
in Chinese.
Bio: MIT undergraduate who just graduated. I joined W3C/Japan since
4/1. I've been a zealous Semantic Web geek since 2007 when I was writing
the first Linked Data browser/editor in the world with Tim Berners-Lee
at MIT CSAIL. I am actively promoting the Semantic Web in Taiwan.
