Re: [ontolog-forum] Ontology in Mainstream Media

[Matthew Kaufman <mkfmncom@xxxxxxxxx>]

Thanks everyone for your participation on this list; it is the best list I have ever been a part of.  I'd like to participate more in the web area of services because they definitely are not semantic or so usable in my opinion.

We need something like Gopher or eg i.e. simplicity for ontology and entity management and services online.

Impressive at least.  I am glad that these old recordings were actually refernced again.  I am listening to them (the first presentation by Peter and Adam) on the Virtual Assistant.  It is not of *high* interest however it is historical and related to some unrelated work that I have been of course working on for the past 5 years for my company MI2.

/unrelated PS: How can I change my ontolog identity to a new email address?  Or can I add an alias email address on to this identity for participating without new registration?  Or is a seperate new registration required.  In either case; Could someone reply privately to help me add mi2@xxxxxxx as my identity?  :)

This surprises me as well.  Seriously?  Wow.  I mean I recall a few more main stream people (in my reserved opinion) were kind of being invited to speak or were speaking at Davos when it was last.

That's not a bad thing, but uuhm, is kind of a bad thing.

Wow! Obviously not too many at Davos (World Economic Forum) realize
that term in metaphysics has been
co-opted, for 20 years already, by information scientist to mean
something quite specific.

This is great, nonetheless!
