Government announced that hundreds of ‘unnecessary’ websites are to be axed. It has taken world economic crisis and a rise of unemployment at home together with series of companies going bankrupt for us to wake up to think and reassess what technology is actually doing for us rather than what we think it is doing for us.

Video - Introduction to Linked Data
The presentation given by Sandro Hawke, June 8, 2010 - MIT Cambridge, MA World Wide Web Consortium w3.org, who gave a talk about ‘Linked data’.
The introduction:-
“Although the first Semantic Web standards are more than ten years old, only recently have we begun to actually see machines sharing data on the Web. The key turning point was the acceptance of the core Linked Data principle, that object identifiers should also work with Web protocols to access useful information. This talk will cover the basic concepts and techniques of publishing and using Linked Data, assuming some familiarity with programming and the Web. No prior knowledge of Semantic Web technologies is required”.
A good overview, intro, issues of URI and positioning of where we are.
