The extraordinary human construct that is the World Wide Web is a truly Disruptive Technology. There are now hundreds of millions of users, billions of indexed web resources, it is used in every country on Earth and yet only a tiny percentage of users is ΓÇ£trainedΓÇ¥ in any way. This remarkable construct is both massively distributed and largely open. With this amount of content and usage the integration of information across space and time leads to new opportunities. From on-line shopping to collaborative e-Science the web is constantly changing how information is generated, deployed and used. This talk will examine the extent to which intelligent web services are evolving to cope with diverse sources of information on a global scale. It will examine the particular way in which Artificial Intelligence is being woven into the web and examine the prospects for the so-called Semantic Web. Experience derived from the AKT project ΓÇô a 6 year multi million pound collaborative project - will be discussed It will review how these and other developments are likely to shape the future and our own lives as researchers.
