			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>Years of big promises and hyperbole. Multiple definitions for most important terms. Revolutionary &#8220;semantic&#8221; applications that turn out to be nothing more than yet another implementation of social bookmarking. <a class="zem_slink" title="Natural language processing" rel="wikipedia" href="http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Natural_language_processing">NLP</a> people hijacking the term &#8220;semantic web&#8221; and acting like they are too good to be even remotely associated with anything as primitive as <a class="zem_slink" title="Linked Data" rel="wikipedia" href="http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Linked_Data">linked data</a>. Performing text matching and calling it &#8220;artificial intelligence&#8221;. These are just some aspects of the horribly confusing state that what we call &#8220;The Semantic Web&#8221; is in right now; and has been for years.</p>
<p>Confused? Yes, many of us are. So here are two excellent articles that might clear things up a bit for you:</p>
<ul>
<li><a href="http://www.furia.com/page.cgi?type=log&amp;id=301">Never Mind the Semantic Web</a> by Glenn McDonald, on 13 reasons for confusion.</li>
<li><a href="http://things.rodpetrovic.com/post/95863848/misconceptions-about-semantic-web">Misconceptions about Semantic Web</a> by Rod Petrovic, on how you are probably wrong. ;-)</li>
</ul>
