The idea of Semantic Web has been around for a very long time, much longer than most people have been online. In fact, the idea of a “cloud computer” was first introduced in the 1950’s. Remington Rand built a UNIVAC Cloud Computer in the mid-1950’s.

Don't worry, once you see it, you'll think it's weird.

Are you implying that you know what Christopher Burdett is known for in the quasi-Bitcoin space, or are you simply taking a fair and wild guess?

of course I know (but not for sure, ofc). it's pretty easy if you google "2008 [censored]".

I think you're tryin' to trick me into believing you know what I'm alluding (eluding, if you pen copy for BitGold) to.

Here: http://thefarwilds.com/About_Us.html

Scroll to the bottom of the page and see if you can connect Code Collective LLC to Christopher Burdett who does some sort of work for the government.

wasn't trying to trick you or anything, but it appears I was wrong.. guess I'll have to do some more reading on this guy.
this "work for the government" can't be related to some game company, I presume?

How is that after I gave you the game's name - http://thefarwilds.com/About_Us.html - you turned around and guess it's D&D? If I had shown you a baseball, would you've guess the sport to be badminton?

Looks like I have have to connect the weird dots on this one.

The site is The Far Wilds.

Christopher Burdett of Code Collective LLC, the dude who does some type of work for the government, created the artwork for the card game.

Christopher Burdett created his Twitter account at the beginning of October, 2008. On October 31, 2008, Satoshi Nakamoto released the Bitcoin White Paper.

Who owns The Far Wilds? Jed McCaleb.

Who is Jed McCaleb? Only the first dude to sign up on Mt Gox because he was its original creator is all.

Weird, eh?

Code Collective Llc, 509 E Branch Rd, Patterson, New York, 12563

owh, my bad.. I would've never expected you to give me a link to the answer.

The WOTD is "helix".

The year is 1878.

What two amazing things happened in that year directly related to the WOTD?

Yes, one is relatively easy to figure out, but wait till you learnt the other, of which there may be a connection. Weird!

found 2 events that happened all over the world and could be related to each other if one believe in supernatural things. but I still don't know for sure if those events are related to the WOTD directly (although I did find that word on various pages related to those 2 events). plus one of them isn't what I'd call amazing.. more like terrible.

gonna save it until tonight. can't concentrate with all these noises. feel free to throw a hint.  Grin

Helix = DNA (that was the easy one)

Here's an obtuse hint for the other one: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=mf2O3OAQjng (helix + 1 keyword gleaned from its title ---> Google [images] -quotes)
