The relationship between the Semantic Web and Semantic Assertions
January 19, 2008 – 11:59 pm

Semantic Assertions
December 18, 2007 – 9:04 pm
I am starting a new Open Source Project that will provide relationship-aware, authority-based knowledge valuing. The goal is to be able to ask questions and get back results that are both specific to your needs and vetted by those you trust in a very distributed environment that is not dependent on a single service.
It is [...]
