The end of data?
David Weinberger on his new insight: there is no data; all is metadata. "There used to be a difference between data and metadata. Data was the suitcase and metadata was the name tag on it. Data was the folder and metadata was its label. Data was the contents of the book and metadata was the Dewey Decimal number on its spine. But, in the Third Age of Order, everything is becoming metadata."Permalink | Monday, October 18, 2004
