I’m finding the PC Forum Wiki a good way to catch up on what’s going on at that conference.

And I was glad to read Sergey Brin of Google taking on Tim Berners-Lee‘s idea for the semantic web. It’s the battle between order and mess, and messiness not only will win, we’re better off for it. I mean, if the early browsers only read well-formed and valid HTML, the Web would be far neater, one-thousandth the size, and lifeless.

[Thanks to the people contributing to the Wiki. Here’s an enhancement request that I know is counter to the wiki culture: I personally like it when the primary author of a page notes that fact. I don’t even know who to thank for most of the work!]
