We are gradually moving to things like this under the general banner of Annotations and Data Syncs. Ironically, its 2010 and still don't even have DDE (a 1980's technology) re. data change notification and subscription etc.. Anyway, these things are coming, pubsubhubbub applied to linked data, annotations (simply UIs for 3-Tuple conversations) etc.. > Would that open the door for identifying those that could be > auto-generated and those that could build social pressure for SemWeb > annotations and data owner participation? -k I call this Data Spaces and Data Driven Discourse, its all coming :-) BTW - Twitter may also help accelerate comprehension and appreciation of what you seek. Many sources of solutions are taking shape etc.. Very good point, by the way!
