Good news for all of us in the semantic web community. Just wondering why Google is reluctant to use 'semantic' word even once in the blog <http://googleblog.blogspot.de/2012/05/introducing-knowledge-graph-things-not.html>.


As they say: its Things for Strings. Basically, labels don't matter. Identifiers (URIs) are sacrosanct :-)

"The Semantic Web" is a literal moniker, its essence exists in the relational property graph that manifests its real description or formal definition.

Same applies to "Giant Global Graph" etc..

Now thanks to DBpedia and the rest of the LOD cloud collective, we have URIs and associated Linked Data oriented content for these concepts:

1. http://dbpedia.org/resource/Semantic_Web - Semantic Web
2. http://dbpedia.org/resource/Giant_Global_Graph -- Giant Global Graph
3. http://dbpedia.org/resource/Linked_Data -- Linked Data
4. http://dbpedia.org/resource/World_Wide_Web -- Web .

And thanks to Entity Relations & SPARQL we can do stuff like this: http://dbpedia.org/describe/?uri=http://dbpedia.org/resource/Giant_Global_Graph .

Labels don't matter anymore, it now boils down to the content (*character*) of those resources bearing Linked Data graphs :-)

    The rewards remain eternally plentiful. That's the inherent nature

        +1000...

        It's getting real interesting. Google and Facebook as massive
        Linked Data Spaces, awesome!
