Semantic Universe Sighted

January 31, 2009

A happy quack to the reader who alerted me to this Yahoo News story here about the Semantic Universe. According to Tony Shaw, Editor of Semantic Universe Network, “The semantic community needs a vehicle to communicate the comprehensive business applications and benefits of semantic technology, as well as a better way to connect developers, customers, entrepreneurs and investors. Semantic Universe Network will be that vehicle.” Sponsorship opportunities are available too. You can get additional information from the Web site here. The goslings at Beyond Search wish the information service well.

Hi Stephen,

I wrote about a paper called “What is an analogue for the semantic web and why is having one important?” by mc schraefel from the university of Southampton.

There a lot of papers about this stuff going round at the moment. The main idea is that it’s our fault for not making the semantic web easier to understand and we haven’t provided any of the benefits to webmasters and users.

CJ,

I think that Google wants to “fill the gap.” Check out the Ramanathan Guha inventions for Google.
