I was reading Google Deprecates Their SOAP Search API by Brady Forrest but it’s not really about SOAP, it’s the removal of a useful programmatic API entirely as the remaining AJAX Search API according to the terms of use, can only be invoked by a <script> tag and is thus not really an API for anyone [...]

Last week I was at the International Semantic Web Conference (ISWC 2006) in Atlanta, Georgia, USA and apart from meeting people and talking, I was invited at the last minute by Mark Greaves to speak on a panel titled Web 2.0 and delighted to do so. I presented a few slides discussing how I thought the ideas behind Web 2.0 overlap and [...]
This made me laugh. Planet RDF as actual planet, with space ships and meteors. Sadly a static image won’t show the lovely animations.
Found via the Yahoo! Search Blog which provides the pointer to the more fun, I mean, more sophisticated version of the original Site Explorer called Webzari by Yahoo! Korea which lets you look at your ysearch index pages, [...]
Presentation at XTech 2006 in Amsterdam The Open Street Map/ (OSM) approach is to have both Free Data and Free Software and to add to the data in the wiki style. There are various problems with using UK Ordnance Survey (OS) data including IPR (even with academic licenses), leaving little choice but to use out of copyright maps, the last open ones [...]
I’ve arrived in Amsterdam and already I’ve bumped into a lot of lovely people - Tom Coates, Paul Hammond, Simon Willison (who were all on the train from the airport, and all Yahoo!s: proof), Matt Patterson, Edd Dumbill, Mark Nottingham, Uche Ogbuji, Bijan Parsia. While I typed this, Libby Miller and Damian “I’m in [...]

As tempting as it was to call this posting Not Blogging the Company, this isn’t about something I did for my employer, so instead I’ve borrowed Steve Jobs’ famous phrase. On Sunday 30th April I announced the release of Rasqal 0.9.12 which has a lot of internal changes but externally it’s mainly for the [...]
It’s funny but I’ve never really got into blogging about my employer - Yahoo!. This is partially because there are things I can’t say (let’s call that Reason #1) but mostly because I’m mostly working on things that aren’t reaching the public. The company has a policy about blogging too and that’s [...]
Now this is cool, and I’ve seen it in demo form for a while: BBC Programme Catalogue is live announces Matt Biddulph.
75 years of BBC programme data, all clickable in a web and ready to browse, search, tags, tag clouds, sparklines of activity. UK TV heaven. No video present but it’ll answer all those [...]
