Is all data becoming metadata?
Posted by Stephen Francoeur on May 25, 2007
David Weinberger, a philosophy professor who is currently a research fellow at the Berkman Center for Internet and Society, has recently published a book, Everything Is Miscellaneous, that is stirring up lots of discussion among librarians about the future ways we (all of us, not just the librarians) will organize information in the digital world we live in. My copy of the book is waiting for me at the circ desk (thanks CLICS!), but if you want to get a great overview of what everyone is talking about, check out this 57-minute video of Weinberger speaking at Google about the core ideas in the book.
