Very nice.
I haven't been following freebase/metaweb at all. I did a little
research after watching your presentation, but I can't quite figure out
how relevant parallax is for the Semantic Web. It looks to me like it
could be turned into an open/standard web system (a Semantic Web
Browser) but it is not one right now. Perhaps the changes would be only
in the backend; maybe none of the GUI code would have to change. Have I
understood that right? If it's true, what's the legal status of the
code. Can someone else turn it into a Semantic Web browser? And/or: do
you have any plans to?
