A long one this time.

 

Kent Newsome returns and we catchup on what’s going on on the interwebs now he’s back on the grid. Some interesting discussion around how the semantic web of the future will deliver value to you via everything you ever wanted to know from your friends crazy love affairs with their devices!

 

Here’s the rough, kinda chronological semantics of how the show pans out.

- derek trucks plays a mean guitar

- kent catchup

- economic bubble burst

- online ads going away

- kents rave on semantic web and dscussion about what we think it might be – http://www.newsome.org/2008/12/preowned-semantic-web-cars-for-bigfoot.shtml

 

I think that’s about it.

 

Except I think I may’ve mucked up the ID3 Tags on last show (#56) by transposing numbers so it appears as (#65) – if so, sorry to mess up your neat list in your library. I might look at it and see if I can fix things a bit. If not, or on the other hand, maybe I’ll just tag #65 as #56 when we get there just to confuse our listener when they have a eels marathon listening session sometiome in the distant futur – probably about the same time we all actually discover what the semantic web is … or teleporters come into being – whichever comes first. Okay, I’ll go now and try and remember never todo shownotes again on a Friday after work.

 

Oh, and remember the TPN pledge drive – the network needs you.
