  IT Conversations: Daniel Hillis
Applied Minds is based in Los Angeles; a company founded on the idea of creating version 1.0 of a product and having other companies do the less interesting work of producing version 2.0 and beyond.
Applied Minds mixes together various hardware and software technologies, along with design, art, and science, to develop projects from robotics to toys to reinventing how we interface with maps.
Hillis closes the talk by discussing what he thinks is Applied Minds's most important software work, centered around his vision of the Internet and publishers' ability to tap into the aggregate data on the web and to remix and render that public data.
