fancy Web sites are nice domenica 10 ottobre 2010

but domenica 10 ottobre 2010

are they really accessible? domenica 10 ottobre 2010

peer review and quality of data are important things domenica 10 ottobre 2010

except the notion of “quality” changes over time and space and culture and... domenica 10 ottobre 2010

just a few examples... domenica 10 ottobre 2010

“ O re, questa conoscenza (mathema) renderà gli egiziani più sapienti e più dotati di memoria: infatti ho scoperto un pharmakon per la sapienza e la memoria. - E il re rispose: - Espertissimo (technikotate) Theuth, una cosa è esser capaci di mettere al mondo quanto concerne una techne, un'altra saper giudicare quale sarà l'utilità e il danno che comporterà agli utenti; e ora tu, padre delle lettere, hai attribuito loro per “ benevolenza il contrario del loro vero effetto. Infatti esse produrranno dimenticanza (lethe) nelle anime di chi impara Plato, Phaedrus myth of Theuth domenica 10 ottobre 2010

Researchers are not any more only in the academia* * See also recent speeches of EU Commissioner M. Quinn and Europe 2020 strategy domenica 10 ottobre 2010

research is not done anymore only here domenica 10 ottobre 2010

domenica 10 ottobre 2010

researchers are all around us domenica 10 ottobre 2010

so domenica 10 ottobre 2010

if we want to advance human knowledge (our mission?) domenica 10 ottobre 2010

we can’t anymore domenica 10 ottobre 2010

keep data hidden in our hard disks domenica 10 ottobre 2010

nor domenica 10 ottobre 2010

in our fancy websites with TEI-aware, user-daptive, context-sensitive, whatever search engines domenica 10 ottobre 2010

we must allow domenica 10 ottobre 2010

people (and the next generations) to freely re-use, re- think, re-mix the knowledge we encoded into machines domenica 10 ottobre 2010

possibly lots of people domenica 10 ottobre 2010

Internet users in the world: 1.668.870.408 in Europe: 402.380.474 (~50%) average growth from 2000 to 2009: 362.3% domenica 10 ottobre 2010

so we can’t hide data because domenica 10 ottobre 2010

your web site data is less valuable when it’s siloed domenica 10 ottobre 2010

value is in domenica 10 ottobre 2010

it became a Web of Documents meant for Human consumption (only) domenica 10 ottobre 2010

machines had no way of understading domenica 10 ottobre 2010

that two documents talk about the same “thing” domenica 10 ottobre 2010

semantics is hidden, only human readers can extract it from documents domenica 10 ottobre 2010

machines are helpless domenica 10 ottobre 2010

<open access, e-publishing> cites <internet, arts & humanities> we use very simple ways (don’t forget they are stupid) of telling them what we are talking about domenica 10 ottobre 2010

this is what the Semantic Web (and Linked Data, and the Web of Data) is all about. Forget Articiﬁal Intelligence! It has nothing to do with this! domenica 10 ottobre 2010

Hidden semantics, no access to Web of Documents Web 1.0 data Hidden semantics, partial access to Social Web Web 2.0 data,1-to-1 Interoperability Explicit semantics, full access to Web of Data Web 3.0 data, global Interoperability domenica 10 ottobre 2010

the web is becoming a huge distributed global database with a lot of different ways (Interfaces, applications ...) to access it domenica 10 ottobre 2010
