In what observers are calling an extremely ironic twist I'm having to learn all about what the semantic web and ontology people have been doing after spending a bunch of time complaining about them because I am trying to solve a very semweb-shaped problem so it's relevant now.

Paul isn't saying blogs & wp were slop - he's saying they were considered slop. Sadly true.

The original web of slop was & is commercial social media. Insta, fb, twitter.

Blogs & wp, & anything open & folksonomic, are the core web. (But not podcasts, which move away from the semweb ideal.)

(delusions of grandeur) in the history of semantic web, searchmonkey will be exhibit #1 of practical semweb, f8 '10 will be #2

It took me about 5 years of dedicated research into semweb and LD to arrive at some sense of understanding of the culture, and from conversations w/ olde semweb ppl, the reason the history hasnt been written seems to be its either too fresh or ppl dont see it as a historicized project...

Side note, S/o to @goldavelez.org for persistently showing up in the public archives that I can find as a force for good. I have only been able to do a little archaology of early atproto bc like semweb it seems to be too soon to talk abt, but there are so many good ideas that I wonder what happened.

I (partly) agree with @davekarpf.bsky.social's thesis that "Who would an agent want to help?" is a relevant question. (Answer: follow the money.) But I'd hoped one lesson the SemWeb had taught is that the information environment is adversarial. When a different audience gets access, it changes. 3/

But of course it was pretty clear to everyone that the “web” part was just marketing. Standardization of JSON (and earlier on SQL) had immense value but little to do with dumping everything into one giant data ocean. SemWeb languages were “just” a much much richer data representation.

Meh. I’m not (and never was) a believer in any outside-the-firewall SemWeb applications. But the semweb languages/standards were precisely about addressing some of these complaints—mainly about how to encode relationships between different (ostensibly incompatible) metadata schemas.

That particular image is of Virtuoso http://vos.openlinksw.com/, but I don't think I can go down the dark path of SemWeb, PHP software, RDF, and pain again.

There is such a thing as too many standards.
