Ask HN: Is anyone interested in the Semantic Web?

3 pointsby 6r17almost 2 years ago
Hi HN !<p>I&#x27;m looking to build connection and discuss with people interested in the semantic web, Web 3.0 (not the crypto one), serverless web apps, data-governance, offline-first apps,<p>For those who do not know what the semantic web is, it&#x27;s an idea that was coined by Tim Berners- Lee by exposing the concept that data could be reused between different different services.<p>Is anyone on HN working on that subject ?

Thanks for the replies !<p>I&#x27;m building something else it seems, I&#x27;m trying to find app builders who want to focus on app-design and let their users store their data.<p>I&#x27;m made the link with Web 3.0 and Semantic web due to the ability i&#x27;m providing to my users of re-using their data between services.<p>I&#x27;m looking for app builders who want to focus on serverless features, i&#x27;m providing kind of a FireBase but where the user has total control.<p>Compatible with any storage engine, protocol or client.<p>If interested please reach me out at 6r17@proton.me<p>edit :<p>Concerning the semantic part it seems there were no real usage made except from promises of higher score,<p>I&#x27;m more interested in the (small ?) software market where data is not held hostage by the developer.<p>My feeling is that software grow old, but data should remain.<p>At the moment the web is like paintings glued with their frames.<p>I think it&#x27;s mostly due to economical perspectives being reasonably promising due to the power laid by data collection

I worked for months to make client&#x27;s site part of the &quot;symatic web&quot; under their misguided belief that doing so would bring some magic SEO lift and Google love. After months of work, Google Pandas wiped out their business.<p>From personal observation, there is absolutely no benefit other than to harvesters to efforts to embrace the symatic web.

Not that I know of. A close friend wrote a master thesis in the area, last I heard about SW from him was around 2013

I&#x27;ve understood part of that to be machine-readable markup such as schema.org, and I make heavy use of it.

Semantic web was a meme from 2005, it didn’t take off and never will (you’re just working for people to scrap your content more easily)
