- Examining Real World Uses Of Rich Snippets and Markup
- by Barbara Starr. Search Engine Land, November 26, 2012. "Semantic markup is becoming more and more popular in conjunction with large scale SEO. Adding rich snippets to send rich signals to alert search engines as to the relevancy of your content − whatever vertical they may appear in − is not only a wise move, but an SEO best practice. Included below is an illustrative guide highlighting currently available Chrome extensions, which you can leverage to both test on-site markup as well as expose any information regarding your competitors. An example is illustrated below, and what follows is a guide to getting the information..."

- How Search and Social Engines Are Using Semantic Search
- by Barbara Starr. Search Engine Land, September 26, 2012. "The term 'Semantic Search' is certainly not new. However, it has taken on a new dimension and implications in both search and social engines today. In addition, it has had a strong impact on targeted semantic advertising. This special series of forthcoming articles on semantic search will take a look at the history behind the development of semantic technology and why it has now become so commercially viable and topical. It will also take a look at how the technology enables 'answer engines', rather than simple search engines, to improve the user experience..."

- Is the future of sharing the Semantic Web?
- Government Computer News, April 2012. "Sharing takes the next steps towards a more complete understanding of the data Current information sharing is based mostly on using so-called Web 1.0 search tools and Web 2.0 tools such as social media to collect and display data and information on the Web and make it easier for people to access. The next generation of Web technologies — collectively called the Semantic Web — will move sharing into the era of Web 3.0..."

- Semantic Web? It's Not Rocket Science. Except at NASA
- Filed by Ian Jacobs, W3C, May 27, 2011. "I met Jeanne Holm last week during the W3C Advisory Committee meeting. Jeanne is the Chief Knowledge Architect at the Jet Propulsion Laboratory (JPL), California Institute of Technology, and leads the Knowledge Management Team at NASA. When we started talking about NASA's use of Semantic Web technology I asked whether the application satisfies three criteria: The application aggregates data from three independently developed sources. The data is used in ways not originally intended ("serendipitous reuse"). The cost of aggregation is low, requiring only a small amount of connective tissue. She answered "yes" to all three, a Semantic Web trifecta. I then asked her to share the details, which we captured below..."

- The Promise of the Semantic Web
- New report details value proposition for using semantic Web technologies, by Pat Speer. Information Management Online, August 9, 2010. "The evolution of the Web has brought great change to the insurance industry in the past two decades, both in cost reduction possibilities and in insurers' value to consumers. As insurers uncover opportunities derived from Web-based technologies, yet another branch of the Internet tree beckons with a golden apple. The 'semantic web' has the potential to deliver even more change—and opportunities—to insurers. So says a report issued by the London office of Celent, a research and consulting firm..."

- Interface: Where We're Headed with Web 3.0
- Not a gilded age or paradigm shift, but social interaction will increasingly drive business, by William Laurent. Information Management Magazine, July/August 2010. "The ubiquitous buzz about Web 3.0 continues unabated; nevertheless, a clear consensus or definition has not emerged of what Web 3.0 really is, or how the e-enabled world will move from Web 2.0 into a sensational era of super intelligent content and knowledge management services. However, one thing has become clear to me: Web 3.0 will not result in a huge paradigm shift or a gilded age of computing; more likely, it will be a subdued convergence of existing technologies and methodologies with new ones that borrow heavily from the past. Web 3.0 will be a catalyst for a paradigm shift that's at least a few more years away. But it won't result in a sudden brave new world of information management, regardless of what marketing materials and industry thought leaders would have you believe..."
