The article is really good. I couldn't find anything in it to complain
about. However, I think some of the most interesting details are at the
bottom about the authors:

    When [Tim Berners-Lee] invented the Web in 1989, he intended it to carry
    more semantics than became common practice.

and

    Frustrated with the difficulty of building agents and automating tasks
    on the Web, [Ora Lassila] co-authored W3Cıs RDF specification, which
    serves as the foundation for many current Semantic Web efforts.

What's your story? ;-)
