Year 2004 generated considerable buzz/hype about the Semantic Web, but not much changed really. So, when is the liftoff? 2005 or 2050? Or is it going to be a slow toiling towards much more modest goals?
Well, may be the web is already "semantic" enough? What do we call what Google does? Or possibly futuristic web search engines like clusty.com? Except that they don't work on explicit semantic representations, which is their strength.
I don't expect much exciting news from the Semantic Web world in 2005 either, but I would be ecstatic to welcome any.
