"Unleash your data" 2. "Data Unleashed" 3. "Unleashes your data" It a little early to vote, I think. Unless people are really tired of talking about it, or there's an immediate deadline. (is there?) My choice would depend on the context. Number 1 is for when you're trying to convince someone to use a system that implements RDF. Numbers 2 and 3 are for when you're just trying to convey what the Semantic Web is. I feel a subtle difference between 2 and 3 which makes me lean toward 2. I think it's this: Number 2 says the Semantic Web *is* data, while Number 3 says the Semantic Web is something active, something which manages data. Number 2 fits my way of thinking better -- I usually consider the web to be made up of documents, not to be some system which handles documents for me. (Of course, there are times when I dig into the system details, but not usually when I am a user.) I would expect to hear people say that "foaf data is part of the semantic web", not "foaf data is available from the semantic web." But I wouldn't be shocked to hear the second form (corresponding to #3), so, ... whatever. :-) -- Sandro
