I think RDF is a bit too complicated to be embraced in these times of “bottom-up” evolution. Anyway the biggest problem was (at least in my mind) lack of data.
But today I found a lot of RDF data at rdfdata.org. I didn’t even start thinking of all the cool services you could build with them since I don’t want to spend the next days diverting from what I should do (writing the thesis). And yes, some are more interesting than
Metadata about Elvis impersonators [RDF] (2005-04-01) At last, the semantic web is complete. Extensive metadata about 81 Elvis impersonators, some with scary videoclips. (slurred southern accent:) “Thank you, thank you very much.” ;-)
