It would be much easier to know if I knew what the right problems where though. The problems we are solving for our customers are: - Data sharing (sometimes for its own sake, such as governmental transparency) that avoids proprietary formats/licenses/products. - Enterprise application creation (using Linked Data to abstract away from proprietary storage technologies). - Enterprise application integration (using Linked Data to share application state). Those constitute the "right" problems for us because they address defined needs.
