Linked Data Talk at TED

Hey Guys,

I just watched this very interesting talk on "Linked Data" at TED.
Beyond being interesting, it is also somewhat pertinent to GDR and the
DB's we hold there.

This kind of runs back on some of the semantic web stuff I was on
about a couple of years back. I'm not sure that I have an immediate
application in mind, but it is still very interesting to me.

Also don't see a business story... yet.

Enjoy!

PS I couldn't hit the DB Pedia application link he was talking about
as the site seemed to be down, but that application also looks very
interesting. And not unlike some of the stuff I am (slowly) trying to
do with the GDR buzz functionality.
