What is the Analogue for the Semantic Web? If the Web is like a Page+Links, the SW is like a...: For the moment, i'm imagining this context-rich interaction as the Semantic Web, and the way i'm thinking of it is as a researcher's Note Book (we are all knowledge workers at some point) of work in progress. A notebook. With the Memex.
The reason that vision of note book + memex appeals to me particularly is that it foregrounds an active engagement with the data - both reading it, writing it, potentially sharing it for reuse. And i think that kind of in-process engagement with information - to have in work data and external data blending for the development of new knowledge is what the Semantic Web is about.
