MIT/Stanford Vlab will hold a presentation in April involving the Semantic Web.

"The Path to the Semantic Web"

April 16, 2002 at Stanford Graduate School of Business, Bishop Auditorium

Just stumbled on this group at Stanford: Center for Work, Technology and Organization. I'll be curious to attend some of their talks here on campus. I was reviewing some of the folks on their board...pretty impressive mix of folks in the Valley.

Recently on the SIGIA List, I posted a request for information on people's use of activity theory to inform the application development of information systems. I received a few responses and one I hope to continue to add to.

You're probably thinking of James Kalbach and the Audi Razorfish presentation from ASIST IA Summit 2002. Did my first auto cross event today. Got my own helmet, neck collar , balaclava(fire resistant head sock)...

What happened:
LPR Auto Cross Event at the Marina | Loma Prieta Region - Zone 7 - PCA
