The Original Proposal of the WWW dated 13 March 1989 and Linked Data – Raw Data Now!

Information Management: A Proposal, by Tim Berners-Lee, CERN

This document was an attempt to persuade CERN management that a global hypertext system was in CERN’s interests. Note that the only name I had for it at this time was “Mesh” — I decided on “World Wide Web” when writing the code in 1990.

In this video, Tim mentioned:
- Linked Data (I want you to make it! I want you to demand it!)
- World where everybody has put data on the web
- LD three rules – http for all data, ui standard format, data is relationships
- http://dbpedia.org
- Raw Data Now!
- Interoperability between social networking sites
- http://openstreetmap.org
