At Verity (acquired by Autonomy in 2005), worked in the Emerging technologies team to develop, from scratch, the Verity Federator (still lives on within Autonomy), and the Recommendation Engine - that enabled personalization, social feedback, expert location, and all sorts of fun applications, endearingly called the "Circle of Life" by sales. I also created the Verity Olympics.
I can claim to have written the first unpublished paper on democratic taxonomies, which was unceremoniously rejected by the "elite" World Wide Web conference committee - little did they know that folksonomies and tagging were to become a tour de force.
