* About Victor Godot Creative New Media Semantic Web: a Video Presentation in 5 Minutes Posted on March 4, 2009 Filed Under online search, online video, search engine, semantic web, social media, video | Here's an excellent, concise presentation by Tom Llube explaining the Semantic Web at the Davos economic forum. Transcription below: A revolution is happening in the structure of the web itself. It's gentle and it's powerful, it's like tai-chi: you hardly know that is happening, but when it hits, it has a massive impact.

Here's a great video presentation I found about the Semantic Web; I transcripted all the main parts here below. Text transcription: The Internet as we know it today is in an extending success: more than 1.300.000.000 (1,3 billions) people are connected to the Web across the globe. In 2006, 161 EB of informations were created or replicated world wide. IDC estimates the increase over 6 times this metric by 2010 - to 988 EB, or to 1 ZB a year.......

Two days ago Stephen Wolfram gave an early preview of his "computational knowledge engine" Wolfram Alpha at a talk at Harvard University. The video of the whole presentation (1h 45min long) is here above, while down below you can find some highlights I transcripted from his speech.
