Erik Wilde’s Summary

My main interest is information and web architecture. How can information be modeled and represented and exchanged in a way which works well on the Web? How to avoid common modeling pitfalls and lock-in into proprietary technologies? I believe in the benefits of standardization. By using well-designed information models and open architectures, information and applications are more likely to be open, accessible, usable, maintainable, extensible, and easy to integrate with other information and applications.
