The Web as a Totalizing System
Increasingly all data is on the Web: a universal information space
The "Web 2.0" is the use of the Web as a platform for applications, a universal computation space
What is the break point for the full realization of the Web?
Opposing Methodologies
Peter Norvig: We deal with millions of Web masters who can't configure a server, can't write HTML. It's hard for them to go to the next step.
It's about connecting the World Wide Web to the meaning of the wide world outside the web.

It's a tricky problem, but how can we say that our representations on the Web have no meaning?
TimBL: You don't want statistics or tagging running your banking account!
The semantics are grounded in logical models, not machine-enabled perception or cognition, with the mapping from useful domains to models done by humans.
Logical semantics are not derivative once they are inside the machines, as the semantics of the machine operation is independent of the human and the machine once it in the model...

The Semantic Web is not about replicating human intelligence. The Semantic Web is about augmentation and so "keeping humans in the loop."
Man's population and gross product are increasing at a considerable rate, but the complexity of his problems grows still faster, and the urgency with which solutions must be found becomes steadily greater in response to the increased rate of activity and the increasingly global nature of that activity....
by "augmenting human intellect" we mean increasing the capability of a man to approach a complex problem situation, to gain comprehension to suit his particular needs, and to derive solutions to problems. Increased capability in this respect is taken to mean a mixture of the following: more-rapid comprehension, better comprehension, the possibility of gaining a useful degree of comprehension in a situation that previously was too complex, speedier solutions, better solutions, and the possibility of finding solutions to problems that before seemed insoluble.
Can we build off of social search engines?
How about microformats, as in GRDDL and Technorati's Microformat Search?
Can we provide trusted search, through Semantic Rules and policy?
Can we use RDF as a transport layer amongst decentralized search engines?
In concert with Wikia search? Semantic Wikipedia?
Why shouldn't the Semantic Web tackle the world's biggest problem: Search on the Web, in a decentralized manner?
