Pivot on the content and linked data

I remember with my early involvement with the web, early 90's, talking about how early computers (60-80s) used to almost exclusively present and store numbers,(99% of stuff on computers was numbers/data) over time it merged in text and eventually imagery (90's), especially exploding with content as the web and the browser arrived, (99% of whats on computers isnt data) then sound and then video then live life (0's ie the said naughtees)

However, still today most computer search and analysis is with numbers and text, only the output being with graphs and images. Well have a look at TED and PIVOTS.
