news from gnowsis.com

Dear People of the Semantic Desktop,

I want to briefly keep you up to date on our DFKI spin-off
where I am going to offer a commercial Semantic Desktop.

The founding team of Bernhard Schandl (some of you know him from the 
summerschool) and myself
applied for funds in Vienna and got an initial grant from www.inits.at, 
an incubator company which
is also coaching our company.
We are currently searching for two more co-founders and another programmer
http://www.gnowsis.com/about/node/6

if you want to apply, do so, others have done already!

The product will be based on the core idea of the gnowsis system:
linking things to help people remember.

I will keep you updated every few months on the steps,
if you prefer more frequent updates, subscribe to our blog:
http://www.gnowsis.com/about/blog

best
Leo
