A crazy few months
Apologies for the lack of recent posts (I think you’ll forgive me in just a moment). I’ve had a crazy few months, but here’s what I’ve been up to, with links for stuff that you can pre-order and download!
- Finished the draft of my second book, with my coworkers Jamie Taylor and Colin Evans. It’s called “Programming the Semantic Web” and it’s already listed in Amazon (the description there right now will be changed, trust me)
- Working on collecting and editing essays for what will be a great collection, called Beautiful Data. I’m not sure if I’m allowed to tell you who the contributors are yet, but I will say they’re fantastic and we were very lucky to get them.
- I gave a 3-hour workshop and a 40-minute session talk at Webstock which was held in Wellington, New Zealand a couple of weeks ago. It was an amazing experience and warrants a whole post on its own. For now, the slides for both sessions are available as PDFs at http://kiwitobes.com/webstock/
And coming up, there’s still more stuff going on:
- I’m giving a talk at ETech on March 10th. It’s about the failure of risk rating agencies and ideas for how the tech community can help
- I’ll also be at Web 2.0 Expo giving another talk on Sources for Data Geeks on April 2nd
- And I’m getting married on July 4th!
(because a lot of people ask me, the answer is: no, conference speaking is not even slightly lucrative. I do it for fun)

Hi Toby!
I very briefly flipped through your slides and they look interesting. I will have a closer loot at it at some point, when I have a bit more time (read: not between breakfast and time to leave for work). However, maybe I should do it at work though as I see many things related to what I am doing: building a business intelligence solution. That is also exactly the reason why I leave a comment since I would suggest that you have a quick look at QlikView (www.qliktech.com), which is the BI tool that we are using. They have a 14-day free trail download available on their website and this is really worth a little play. I think that this might be a very accessible tool for a wider audience to use the concepts you are discussing in your books (however, never really managed to create any self learning solutions within the software).
Take care and looking forward reading your new book. I really enjoyed the first one! Thanks

Hey Toby,
I hope you can post the slides from your March 10 talk. There’s so much available and potentially useful information that is not being incorporated into credit assessments. Borrowers and intermediaries have built-in conflicts, and the rating agencies are joined to the borrowers. An upside to this crisis is that market participants will (or should) be more willing to pay attention to approaches like yours.
I’m such a fan. Collective Intelligence has something for everyone - dilettantes like me, hard-core Python folks, and fans of “the big idea.” It’s my favorite tech book. Please come to New York more often.

I appreciate you for maintaining such a wonderful website. Your site happens to be not only informative but also very inventive too. There are very few bloggers who can write technical articles that creatively. we look for articles with regard to something like this. We ourselves have looked through several blogs to build up on knowledge regarding this. Keep up the good work !!

Our renters moved out a few months ago and left us having a mess to clean up. Not just were there holes inside the wall, they also destroyed doors, window frames and carpets. They were very smart and covered up the damage with pictures, posters and curtains so we didn’t realize the extent in the harm until they have been gone. Now we’re fixing up the house so we can rent it again. Thankfully, this employment is a lot easier as we have a laptop with wireless capabilities. We are capable to Get Cracked Porn Site Logins. as well as other exhibits so we’re entertained whilst toiling away. It is excellent that the Web offers points of this nature.

Hey, nice blog and thanks for the helpful content you put up. If you want to make it easier and would like to automate your content writing, I can suggest you a website where you can hire the services of professional article writers, for an outstanding price. The company’s called Hire Writers. I’ve been using it for a while now, and the writing quality is excellent. By being a native English speaker myself, I can tell that all article writing and rewriting is done by English native speakers - no grammar mistakes, it’s all perfect . They start at merely $1.50 for 300 word article, and $4.25 for 1000 word article. Tried them all, same quality. Just tell them what you write about, and you get 100% human made content, great for google rankings, and all other search engines.
Anyways, just sharing. Keep posting good stuff!
Cheers
