“The Semantic Web lies at the heart of Tim Berners-Lee’s vision for the future of the World Wide Web. Along with others at the W3C Berners-Lee is working on the infrastructure for this next stage of the Web’s life. But the question ‘What is the Semantic Web?’ is being asked with increasing frequency. While mainstream media is content with a high level view, XML developers want to know more, and they want to discover the substance behind the vision.”

“The goal of this article is to pick out the most interesting stuff from Nielsen’s book, leave out stuff that would be obvious to our readers (e.g., ‘frames suck’), and tie Nielsen’s material to related ideas.”

“The video was almost an animated extension of the brand image we established with Funkstörung for their record covers. The piece was designed to look very much like an information-based corporate video, while also reflecting a kind of advertising-overkill sensibility. The record covers we designed for Funkstörung also contain masses of information, such as details about what time the tracks were recorded or what temperature it was during the session. I think the fans who like this type of music are very into the computer information technology side of things, and we were just playing around with that, really.”
