Real life uses of the technology in the Internet and within enterprises will be coming very soon. If you are in the NYC area, this is probably the best way of getting familiar with the technology and meeting people in the field. ”

“ Because real issues are discussed, and not in any "introductory" remedial way. ”

“ Although some of the information presented was interesting the presenters should have cut their presentations down to facts more relevant to the semantic web. For example, an excruciating large amount of time was spent by the first presenter discussing the statistics of how popular Media Wiki is in terms of sites, users, pages, etc. How is that relevant to Semantic Technology? The second presenter was a bit better but spent a bit too much time making points that are largely obvious to people interested in Semantic Technology. E.g. "Information should be structured". I am sorry if this sounds harsh but I think critical feedback is important to improving the quality of our meetings especially when so many of us are time constrained. ”
— Sal Mangano on Mar 13, 2008.
