- XTech 2007: without the X - the return of {{Textual}} markup
This paper discusses textual formats as a trend using a case study of the Turtle RDF Syntax developed by the author and using developing a new JSON textual format for RDF as an example of the tradeoffs that need to be considered.

- XTech 2006: Semantics Through the Tag
This paper will discuss how tagging can be separated from the
services that provide them, allowing use of tags as separate
entities. This separation will use a mapping of tags to and from
RDF, showing how the context of tags (who, where, when made them) can
be represented and preserved. There are multiple choices for
modelling tags in this way which will be discussed along with their
benefits and some of the unusual uses of tags will be considered as
well as the different way that existing tagging services use tagging
differently.
The paper will also discuss methods of how to find the meaning of a
tag – going from a tag to something a human can understand as a
description, which may be evolving – in a decentralized, web friendly
way. Without the use of ontologies!
