| A few days ago we were talking on IRC about how much RDF and XML there was on the web. We stuck a finger in the air and got 15 Million FOAF and RSS files of structured, machine readable data right now. And its growing at the same rate as the number of Weblogs with spikes as each new major provider joins in. This prompted a question to which we didn't really have an answer. "What should Google do with RDF/XML/RSS/Atom it finds"? Then today along comes this mind boggling essay that looks at one possible scenario. August 2009: How Google beat Amazon and Ebay to the Semantic Web Truly, a mind bomb. BTW. It's now 2 years since Google introduced their SOAP API. It still doesn't support anything except basic search. There's still no RSS/Atom feed from search, News search, Images, Froogle etc. [from: JB Ecademy] |
