Powerset Semantic Happy Hour
For most people who visit BooRah.com, they see a website with restaurants reviews, ratings and related information. Underneath the ratings and reviews is a platform that understands human sentiment and extracts subjective attributes from reviews and blogs across the Internet.
For a few hours yesterday, we had a great opportunity to meet and mingle with fellow technologists pioneering the world of semantic web. Powerset, hosted the inaugural semantic happy hour and metaweb, radar networks and trueknowledge attended the very informal but fun event. Powerset and TrueKnowledge previewed their search engines which are to be released in the coming weeks.
Above picture shows Mark Johnson (Powerset on the right) and Shrisha(BooRah on the left) and me (Nagaraju, BooRah) in the middle.
We had a great time at the happy hour and thoroughly enjoyed meeting peer pioneers in the world of semantic web. Thanks to Mark Johnson and Barney Pell for taking the initiative to host this and inviting us.
Next week, at the Alt Search Engines Meetup, I will also be on a panel with Barney and William on NLP search. See you there.
