Walter Underwood has a negative review of David Weinberger's Everything is Miscellaneous, claiming that Weinberger hasn't done his homework on library technology. 2007-11-01T12:33:48Z

DLR on the loose! Interesting story, actually. And quite worrying. 2007-11-01T00:53:25Z

The Web Map 2007-11-01T00:44:31Z

Mapping the Internet is no new thing. xkcd did it with online communities. But nothing beats Paul Downey's "The Web is Agreement" map. It's for those people involved with standards, and it's playing rather well over on Reddit.

Things like the Lost Tribes of UDDI and The Swamps of BPEL cement Paul's new position as the visual Dante of the Web. As, of course, does putting RDF University as far left as possible (that means we're good - even if we like to occasionally trek over to the Cave of Taxonomies occasionally).

Also, does this make Molly the Frodo Baggins of Web Standards?

Currently in: Kent, England

Usually in: East Sussex, England

I am a vegetarian, an atheist, like to code in Ruby and Scala (and Java, but let’s not talk about that), and noodle about with microformats and the Semantic Web.

I have an MA in philosophy from Heythrop College, University of London. My philosophical interests are in analytic metaphysics, ontology, modality, the work of Armstrong, Lewis, Kripke, Russell and Plato. I have a strange, unfulfilled interest in Gadamer’s hermeneutics. I’ve been influenced by Gadamer, by Kierkegaard, Nietzsche, Rawls and Nozick.

Musically, I like jazz fusion, soul and P-Funk. My musical nirvana would be a mixture of Beethoven, Miles Davis and George Clinton topped with a side-serving of Erykah, Jill and Angie.

I also write for the Citizendium, an online encyclopedia project. If you know about stuff, you should join in. I occasionally produce audio recordings for The Pod Delusion.
