David Recordon announces the creation of the Open Web Foundation. The open web is all about the data and protocols behind the web services in the cloud; the open web needs open data, and open data needs open specifications. Modeled after the Apache Software Foundation, the Open Web Foundation's goal is to do for specifications what open source has done in its arena, build community around specifications. tag:odeo.com,2009-01-21,23924104 Wed, 21 Jan 2009 22:00:00 -0800 no IT Conversations http://odeo.com/episodes/23526637-Tom-Spengler-Granicus Jon Udell speaks with Granicus co-founder Tom Spengler, who explains how his company's streaming media system enables governments to manage the capture and synchronized presentation of video and text, making the proceedings usefully transparent.
