Scott M. Fulton, III wrote an interesting article for BetaNews entitled
"Xerox Reignites Interest in Semantic Networking as a Search Tool." He

Thunderstone for many years (or, in some cases, decades.)
Technology Journalist Danny Bradbury interviewed Thunderstone's John
Turnbull (President & CEO) for an upcoming National Post (Canada)
article entitled "In Search of the Missing File."
