Interview, “UpClose: Tim Bray Mapping the Web”
From the interview, “Tim Bray sure has left his mark on the field, especially in Web technology. As a 20-year veteran and pioneer in the software industry, Bray is widely known as an expert on searching and retrieving information. Years before the Web went public, he developed the first search engine software for a Canadian company called Open Text, of which Tim is a co-founder. He then went on to co-write the XML standard, which is transforming the way information is presented and categorized on the Web.” Bray is currently the CEO of Antarti.ca
