“I notice a hesitance toward hard-coded semantics and manual work--people think these things won’t scale. I learned to mix it up... a small amount semantics on top of minimal structure can work wonders.”
- Peter Van Dijck

“For quite some time, I have believed this concept of pace layering holds great promise... In this discussion of metadata, the potential for a unifying architecture is self-evident. Semantic Web tools and standards create a powerful and enduring foundation. Taxonomies and ontologies provide a solid semantic network that connects interface to infrastructure. And the fast-moving, fashionable folksonomies sit on top: flexible, adaptable, and responsive to user feedback.”
- Peter Morville
