Also, note, very little about "semantic web". The word semantic does not appear in the transcript (other than as the title).

The History of the Web series deserves its own post for sure. But going by the publication date, unlike the OP, it seems to end just before it all went south ;)

  Part IV is the last in the series but is not linked (ends in the launch of Netscape 2 with Java, Javascript and the browser plugin API): https://bkardell.com/blog/Brief-ish-History-of-The-Web-Part-4.html https://bkardell.com/blog/Brief-ish-History-of-The-Web-Part-...

    Ah hey thanks for the shout outs :) FWIW Jay Hoffmann has been doin some posts on CSS Tricks https://css-tricks.com/category/history/ https://css-tricks.com/category/history/ and there are some other intersting things in this space too. If you like these, I also do some web history things on our Igalia chats podcasts, often with folks firsthand - one is in fact going to be a chat with Chris Wilson tomorrow at BlinkOn 15. I really enjoyed watching Simon's talk myself - a slightly different perspective of the last 30 years is also in this talk I gave https://youtu.be/dFsRz1PGjdw?list=PL_BRVuWxk8srToZ69z-_5vBJIHTZGFH7Q https://youtu.be/dFsRz1PGjdw?list=PL_BRVuWxk8srToZ69z-_5vBJI... .. It's got no playmobile figures, but a lot of gifs :)

From the transcript (although it's more of an aside): "Some of the standards sprawl was specifically about the markup, but some of it was about building the Semantic Web or Web Services on top of that core. The layering wasn't always neat, especially for namespaces and schemas."
