Re: How will the semantic web emerge

It won't emerge by speaking about it.
It won't emerge first by adding annotations or any distributed  
metadata scheme as that requires a lot of people to agree on many  
things first.
The best way to start it, is to open up a database of valuable data  
to a SPARQL end point with a good ontology.
