Sir Tim and the Semantic Web -- in his own words

See this video of Tim Berners-Lee explaining the advantages of the Semantic Web, including a couple of examples of how he thinks it will impact medicine and health emergencies.

He also points out some things that will be needed for the Semantic Web -- such as a more open access to data -- that healthcare companies and institutions may have trouble with, given the current competitive and legal environments.

For our earlier take on on the Semantic Web and for Sir Tim's less-than-flattering views on the Web 2.0 hype, go here.
