OK. Heres *a* 30 second RDF/SW pitch (audience matters): it's all about making Web-accessible data easier to automate by agreeing explicit names for meaningful relationships between things we describe in the Web. Some real world examples: "is a critical review of...", "works for the organisation whose home page is", "wrote the document available at", "is pictured in the image available at", "recorded by the dodgy rock band whose corporate home page is..." (much handwaving appropriate at this stage, indicative of invisible nodes and arcs being represented in confined elevator space...). The Web is about links; the Semantic Web is about the relationships implicit in those links. --danbri
