Troy Lane Williams Talks with Talis about PeoplePad, Questia, and the Semantic Web
In our latest Talking with Talis podcast I talk with Troy Lane Williams, CEO of stealth semantic technology startup PeoplePad. We discuss Troy's previous position at Questia, exploring the business model and vision that saw a company working with publishers to digitise print publications in the years before Google began their digitisation effort, before turning to PeoplePad and the opportunity to offer consumer-facing applications built upon Semantic Web technologies and approaches.
