We’re posting this from the DEMO 09 conference, which is wrapping up with some panel discussions. It’s been a whirlwind few days, with 39 companies launching an impressive array of new products and services. At 9:22 PST this morning, we took to the stage – and in 6 minutes demonstrated Primal Fusion’s new thought networking service. This is the first product we’ve released on our semantic synthesis platform, the core technology we’ve been developing for the past four years.
Primal Fusion is still in private alpha testing. If you’ve previously requested an invitation to our alpha, it’ll be heading your way very soon. If you’ve just heard of Primal Fusion and would like to learn more, check out our press release below. Then request an account so you can try it first-hand.
At DEMO last month, I attended a panel of world-class experts on the question, Where the Web is Going: Web 2.0, 3.0, and Beyond (video). Here, I want to draw your attention to a portion of the discussion that touched on a truly new type of network. It included a personal testimony to a form of thought networking, many years in the making, and a glimpse into a future where digital thoughts are liberated from documents and social networks.
Jon Udell was addressing the social dimension of the Web and its powerful influence on knowledge acquisition. We don’t just interact with this “global encyclopaedia”, he explained. People discover each other through the intersections of documents they create. “As people expose aspects of their thought process in tangible form as documents, human connections are made.”
“Absolutely perfect,” replied Howard Bloom, but unfortunately, a terribly protracted process. “When we try to find each other, and try to find the knowledge we get from each other, these days it’s as difficult as getting from New York to California in 1848.”
