Over the years, the web has been immensely revolutionized, with a lot of rich content, browsers that are capable of displaying rich media, technologies such as AIR effectively taking and web app seamlessly to the desktop, data mining and data exchange taking place across domains in a second, and a host of other things.
Semantic Web, Semantic Marketing, Effective Web Marketing – SEO TipsThe Semantic Web is an evolving extension of the World Wide Web in which the semantics of information and services on the web is defined, making it possible for the web to understand and satisfy the requests of people and machines to use the web content. The semantic web is a vision of information that is understandable by c

ABSTRACT
The Semantic Web presents the vision of a distributed, dynamically growing knowledge base founded on formal logic. Common users, however, seem to have problems even with the simplest Booleanexpression. So how can we help users to query a web of logic that they do not seem to understand? One frequently proposed solution to address this problem is the use of natural langua
The vast majority of semantic technologists are directing their efforts to search. It’s an important use of their talents; search is a hard problem worth solving. But it seems to me that we need to take a broader view. Semantics is the stuff of thought, of meaning, of our most personal and deeply held beliefs. [...]
People, places, events; our browsers (and other machines) should be able to recognize these things as easily as you and I can. That’s the promise of the semantic web. But users are not the ones who will make the semantic web work. Microformats extend existing XHTML tags to put human-readable information into machine-parsable form (<span class="location">Argent Hotel, San Fran

Μια νέα γενιά search engines είναι το μελλοντικό πεδίο αντιπαραθέσεων των μεγάλων του internet αφού η yahoo είναι πρόθυμη να δώσει βάρος στην ανάπτυξη του semantic web. Με απλά λόγια θα έχουμε πιο εξελιγμένες search engines που θα προσαρμόζουν τα αποτελέσματα μιας αναζήτησης, κατά το δοκούν! Λόγου χάρη όταν θα κάνεις αναζήτηση για την επανάσταση του 1821, θα σου βγάζει και τον Kαραϊσκάκη και την Αλαμάνα και την Αγία Λάβρα χρησιμοποιώντας έξυπνες τεχνικές που θα ε
Yahoo’s embrace of all things open continues today - expect an announcement in an hour or so that they are expanding their Open Search Platform that we wrote about last month. In that previous announcement, Yahoo talked about their plans to allow third parties to alter and enhance search results with structured data that may be useful to users. Today, they’ll give more details on the developer platform and will announce support for a number of semantic web standards.What does all this mean? It means we can expect the web to get itself organized, in a hurry. At stake is a significant amount of traffic from Yahoo search, and anyone else that may choose to build applications on top of this data.Yahoo’s support for semantic web standards like RDF and microformats is exactly the incentive

Book Description
The Semantic Web combines the descriptive languages RDF (Resource Description Framework) and OWL (Web Ontology Language), with the data-centric, customizable XML (eXtensible Mark-up Language) to provide descriptions of the content of Web documents. These machine-interpretable
I might consider doing a longer post later, but I wanted to highlight this to all my fellow SemWebbers.
The Semantic Web (and/or "Data Web" and/or "Web 3.0") is seeing increasing coverage in the media (with varying amounts of accuracy):

The April 2008 Semantic Web Gang Podcast has been released. I enjoyed taking part in this episode, it is a little bit more relaxed than our first episode (mainly because there are less people, and so everybody got their chance to speak about particular topics).
Strangely, I sound incredibly camp on ...
As some of you know, I am a member of the ACM and this lovely bit of news was released last week at some point, but I've only just noticed today because it was in the recent ACM MemberNet mailing list email.
