A dialogue
October 8, 2003
Paul Ford imagines a dialogue between the World and the Semantic Web Research Community:
Semantic Web Research Community: Sure! You need a generalized framework for ontology development.
World: Okay. That'll help me link things together more easily?
SWRC: Even better, it will lead to a giant throbbing robot world-brain that arranges dentist's appointments for you! Just read the Scientific American article.
World: Will that be a lot of work?
SWRC: No. But even if it is, we will blame you for being too stupid to understand why you need it.
