We still program by Knuts book, The Art of Computer Programming.
The industry has been beset by cheap liquid crystal display, so we were overworked making all those user interfaces show the results of Knut's algorithms. During this period the web remained the same, not because micro-processors couldn't do semantic web, but because the web couldn't be disturbed while all those user interfaces were programmed. Microstuff tried that and lost out big. The proliferation of user interfaces has been established, hrml5 installed, Javascript working on all the handhelds. Job done, and on to the semantic web.
Unfortunately, folks who try to build semantic web out of url indexing schemes will fail. The URL is simply a unique key word on ip address and nothing more. Semantic web needs indexing in a general sense, local indexing, private distributed indexing, and web wide tagging. Url is just one part of the puzzle.
