- Headup: A True Semantic Web Search Agent
- by Chris Sherman. Search Engine Land, October 16, 2008. "'Semantic web' is one of those phrases that's tossed around loosely these days, used to describe just about anything that goes beyond basic keyword search to surface relevant content on the web. But true semantic web applications, those that enable people to share content beyond the boundaries of applications or web sites, are still relatively few and far between. That's what makes Headup, a new Firefox plugin from the aptly named SemantiNet, so intriguing..."

- Revisiting Semantic Web's Pros and Cons
- It's cool technology, but what about the humans? The debate still rages years after Semantic Web's introduction, By Richard Adhikari. Internet News, May 26, 2008. "Mention the Semantic Web, and some people think it's going to be a little slice of heaven, while others see it as the end of the world. The first camp, which mainly includes scientists and researchers, wants to use computers to link up data from different sources to create a holistic view of the world. The second, which is more concerned with the social impact of technology, counters that this would result in a massive invasion of privacy..."

- Cool URIs for the Semantic Web
- W3C Working Draft 21 March 2008. "Abstract - The Resource Description Framework RDF allows users to describe both Web documents and concepts from the real world—people, organisations, topics, things—in a computer-processable way. Publishing such descriptions on the Web creates the Semantic Web. URIs (Uniform Resource Identifiers) are very important, providing both the core of the framework itself and the link between RDF and the Web. This document presents guidelines for their effective use. It discusses two strategies, called 303 URIs and hash URIs. It gives pointers to several Web sites that use these solutions, and briefly discusses why several other proposals have problems..."

- Future Web talk caught up in semantics
- by Dan Farber, CNET News.com. ZDNet Australia, 13 March 2008. "The inventor of the World Wide Web, Sir Tim Berners-Lee, has talked up the prospects of the semantic Web, which he calls the "Web of the future". In a recent article in The Times, Berners-Lee said that what Google has done so far pales in comparison with what the semantic Web will bring. Social networking leaders Facebook and MySpace will eventually be trumped by networks that connect all types of things, not just people, he said. That said, Berners-Lee didn't say Google is doomed..."

- Web 3.0 and SEO
- by Terri Wells. SEO Chat, 29 November 2006. "Phil Wainewright first used the term "Web 3.0" nearly a year ago, and to date the concept has been even more difficult to pin down than Web 2.0 was when it was first coined. Already the term attracts controversy, with Wikipedia barely mentioning it except to say that there is not "sufficient consensus from the community of Web designers to justify the creation of a new term to describe the next generation of the Web." Is it real, and what does it mean for SEO?..."

- Building Semantic Webs for e-government with Wiki technology - in pdf format (941kb)
- by Christian Wagner, Karen S.K. Cheung and Rachael K.F. Ip. Electronic government, volume 3, no.1, 2006. "Abstract: E-government webs are among the largest webs in existence, based on the size, number of users and number of information providers. Thus, creating a Semantic Web infrastructure to meaningfully organise e-government webs is highly desirable. At the same time, the complexity of the existing e-government implementations also challenges the feasibility of Semantic Web creation. We therefore propose the design of a two-layer semantic Wiki web, which consists of a content Wiki, largely identical to the traditional web and a semantic layer, also maintained within the Wiki, that describes semantic relationships. This architectural design promises several advantages that enable incremental growth, collaborative development by a large community of non-technical users and the ability to continually grow the content layer without the immediate overhead of parallel maintenance of the semantic layer. This paper explains current challenges to the development of a Semantic Web, identifies Wiki advantages, illustrates a potential solution and summarises major directions for further research..."
