The Semantic Web

I've become obsessed with the semantic web.
From Wikipedia;
The Semantic Web is a "man-made woven web of data" that facilitates machines to understand the semantics, or meaning, of information on the World Wide Web[1][2]. The concept of Semantic Web applies methods beyond linear presentation of information (Web 1.0) and multi-linear presentation of information (Web 2.0) to make use of hyper-structures leading to entities of hypertext.
In other words, the ability to search and analyze more information, in a deeper way. Currently, as surprising as it may sound, Google only indexes about a 10th of all available websites and data. So more data, more analysis, means better understanding of human nature, and obviously tools that make my life easier.
Here are some links relating to this, that you may find interesting:
