The need for shared ontology

Date: Jan. 15, 1999
Link: http://www.ontology.org/main/page1.html
Source Author or Organization: Ontology.org

Excerpted from web site: "The main barrier to electronic commerce lies in the need for applications to meaningfully share information, not in the reliability or security of the Internet. This is due to the variety of enterprise and e-commerce systems deployed by businesses and the way these systems are variously configured and used. It is the central goal of Ontology.Org to solve this problem."
