The Semantic Web - is it better?

In a recent interview with Consortium Standards Bulletin Tim Berners-Lee inventor of the Internet dicusses the Semantic web project and how important it is to the future of online information.

Perhaps the best way to understand the concept is to contrast it to the current Web, which is set up to help you find documents that may (or may not) have the information you want. The Semantic Web will catalogue important data to indicate the type of information that data represents - places, things, people - thus enabling a new dimension of archiving and search.

Its a good read check it out.
