I've been reading the small amounts of published material on the Semantic
Web for quite a while now. You can find some of these by searching for term
at www.manyworlds.com. I've been frustrated until now with the sketchiness
of Tim Berners-Lee's description of the semantic Web. His paper in the new
issue of Scientific American is the most comprehensive statement of it yet.
(Other articles and papers do go into some aspects in more depth.)
For anyone interested in the future of the Net, you will want to read this:
The Semantic Web
A new form of Web content that is meaningful to computers will unleash a
revolution of new possibilities
by TIM BERNERS-LEE, JAMES HENDLER and ORA LASSILA

Onward!
