Semantic web tools of the Simile project
TOMORROW’S TOOLBOX
The Simile project jump starts the semantic web with a collection of tools for extending semantic information to existing websites.
A simple Google search shows how dumb the web really is. If you try to search for a solution to a Linux problem, you are very likely to find many other users with a similar problem, but you might not actually find a solution. The problem is that Google simply evaluates the occurrence of whatever keywords the user enters to describe the problem.
A typical Internet search engine does not analyze the document structure or the structure of a conversation, and this means you could turn up articles that have very little to do with Linux when you search for “Linux keyword.”
