  1. Build your own Semantic Web Apps using a free API by InsurgentGeek · · Score: 1 · on The Semantic Web Going Mainstream
    All might be interested in taking a look at http://sws.clearforest.com/. These guys offer the high-end natural language processing that Twine claims as a simple API available to all.

    Some very cool apps have already been built on top of it like http://newsatseven.com/, http://www.squadinfo.com/, http://www.optevi.net/newstracker and many others.

    It's not the "real" semantic web - but it's an open-access starting point.

    The also have a firefox plugin at http://gnosis.clearforest.com/ that does semantic analysis real time as you browse. I use this constantly while reading business news or browsing Wikipedia.

    What they clearly don't have is Twine's marketing budget.

  3. A new way to use Wikipedia by InsurgentGeek · · Score: 1 · on A Wikipedia WIthout Graffiti
    Slightly OT - but if you're interested in a new and interesting way to navigate Wikipedia (or any of the new-age online reference sources mentioned) check out the Firefox extension Gnosis. It processes the pages you read and automatically highlights and hyperlinks all the people, places, products, companies, organizations and all that stuff. Those hyperlinks lead to Technorati, Google and other sources.

    I've been using it a couple of weeks now and it is seriously cool. Get it at http://gnosis.clearforest.com/

  4. Build the MetaData Yourself - Extension & Web by InsurgentGeek · · Score: 1 · on Greatest Task of Web 2.x: Meta-Validation

    This is one of the reasons my company's approach is to go into the actual content of the text and extract metadata ourselves. Available as a Firefox extension at http://sws.clearforest.com/Blog/?page_id=32 and as a full web service at http://sws.clearforest.com./ Give it a try - it's not the full semantic web - but it's a step in the right direction. Rather than relying on the site's owners to tag correctly - you can at least rely on the site's content.
