For years the Semantic Web has been a much-deride pipe dream. Now it’s starting to come together and is being championed by the W3C we ask the question: do we need it?
Is the “Semantic Web” the new Internet, or a complex technology in search of a problem to solve?
That’s a question that advocates attending the Semantic Technology Conference in San Francisco this week hope to put to rest.
