A 5 minute video with Nova Spivack. In the interview he talks about the semantic web (putting meta data into data), the web is the database (linked data) and that Facebook will become a search engine. In ten years he expects reasoning will be online. Not Artificial Intelligence but assisting agents. He doesn't believe in AI.

Nova Spivack is an entrepreneur, semantic web pioneer, and technology visionary. He founded among other: EarthWeb in 1994 and Radar Networks in 2003. He is the grandson of Peter Drucker. Twine, his first semantic web product is out in beta from Radar Networks.
