Others here, though, seem to have either no idea, or worse, a deeply misguided idea of what the Semantic Web is. I find I'm not arguing for the Semantic Web but against a lot of deeply ingrained misconceptions.
- Tichy 17y agoI don't think anybody is arguing against semantic information. By "semantic web" I primarily think about the effort of creating new markup languages for the web to enable people to mark their data with semantic information that is machine readable. The problem then is, how do you get people to add that extra information. If you can extract information automatically, then you don't need to explicitly mark the data to begin with, so in my opinion it is not the "semantic web" people have been talking about. Of course there was meta-information from day one, that is, web forms had fields for dates and names and in the database there were columns called date and name. That is Web 1.0, not semantic web.
