Dear Hitoshi, Very interesting work! My research is also about using the semantic content inside webpages, and I use it to create personalized actions on content. Given a webpage with semantic annotations, my extension reads the annotations of the element under the cursor and generates matching actions, as you can see in the screenshot [1]. This solution is called Distributed Affordance [2]. It looks like there are some connections to Semantic Spider. One open question I have is: what actions should I recommend to users? I.e., if there’s information about a book on a page, should I provide a link to Amazon or Barnes & Noble? I think Semantic Spider could help finding those answers, as it has a notion of a user’s interests without compromising privacy. My extension is still under development, but you can read about the concept and architecture [3]. Furthermore, some examples are online [4] using a shim script instead of the extension. Perhaps we can connect your and my work together in some way?
