Google, Yahoo, and the end of taxonomy?

Wednesday December 7th I gave a talk at the Systematics Association's AGM in London, with the slightly tongue in cheek title Google, Yahoo, and the end of taxonomy?. It summarises some of the ideas that lead me to create iSpecies.org.

For fun I've made a Quicktime movie of the presentation. Sadly there is no sound. Be warned that if you are offended by even mild nudity, this talk is not for you.

The presentation style was inspired by Dick Hardt's wonderful presentation on Identity 2.0.
