Zigzag and RDF

Ted Nelson is the man who ideated Zigzag, q.v. Yeah, that Ted Nelson, the Xanadu hypertext guru. “Quantum Hyperspace” for data. It’s a way cool idea, but as per expectations, the Venerable Ted has been totally unable to convert it into a personal fortune. He let some Finns run with it in the free world for a while, but then he clamped down on the “valuable” IP, so the gzigzag, quondam gzz project has morphed itself away from the zzstructure and into an RDF hyperbolic UI browser of some sort.

Yeah, I know — you have to drink the kool-aid first.

Anyhow. I know there’s gold in them thar hills. Lots of work to be done, as per usual.
