Web 2.0 and/or Semantic Web

Creators & Contributors

Web 2.0 and Semantic Web are sometimes used synonymously, sometimes distinct. I've come in halfway through a presentation (missed speaker's name) and taken away:
Web 2.0

  • blogging
  • AJAX
  • small-scale mashups
  • proprietary APIs
  • niche vocabularies
  • screenscraping

whereas Semantic Web is

  • large-scale data linking
  • comprehensive ontologies
  • standard APIs
  • well-defined data export
  • data reconciliation

and suggested that we put them together as:

  • blogging
  • AJAX
  • large-scale data linking
  • standard APIs
  • niche vocabularies
  • well-defined data export
  • data reconciliation

"There's just one Web after all"
