Paul Wlodarczyk of JustSystems thinks it’s closer than we think. He’s written a great post about the Semantic Web, focusing particularly on how XML can take ambiguity out of search and enable other semantic advantages. He likens the ‘old’ Web to one where the wisdom of crowds prevails (more backlinks equals better content), and the RDF-structured Web as one where the ‘wisdom of authors’ wins; ‘…who can let the crowds know — in no uncertain terms — what their content means.’ So a post on a New York sports team involved in a trade with a L.A. sports team (using Paul’s example) is unambiguously about the Knicks and the Lakers, or whatever.
