In a recent interview Tim Berners-Lee not only stated that HTTP URIs could have been designed without the double slashes at the beginning (with which I actually disagree: it adds uniqueness and recognizabillity to the whole thing), another important fact somehow gets missing in this interview: when asked to explain the Semantic Web in a nutshell, Tim gives concrete examples of a navigation system in your car that is aware of your calendar and knows where to take you to your next appointment.

Netmonic, an Austrian internet service provider, held a competition in the past, in which the price for the winner were cloud services for a year, for startups based in Austria.
