Details are one click away... - Current state of semantic web For university I have been asked to summarize the current state of the Semantic Web. Existing and emerging technologies. There was a quite tight limitation on the amount of content, but it resulted in a good overview on this topic with a slight focus on computer science. - Tagging - Broken by design In the meantime tagging, as a folksonomy, is often nearly used as equivalent to the whole Web-2.0-hype. Nowadays you can't develop any new application without adding tags, and I wanted to do the same. But reviewing the system in a bit more complex environment shows some major flaws, which can also be detected in the implementations of simple applications.
