The Semantic Web is an evolution of the WWW in which information is machine processable (rather than being only human oriented), thus permitting browsers or other software agents to find, share and combine information more easily.
At its core the Semantic Web consists of a data model called Resource Description Framework (RDF), a variety of data interchange formats (e.g RDF/XML, N-Triples), and notations such as RDF Schema (RDFS) and the Web Ontology Language (OWL) that facilitate formal description of concepts, terms and relationships within a given domain.
(definition from Wikipedia feb'06)
Recently, it has been defined from W3C SPARQL, a query language and data access protocol for the Semantic Web.
Even our Blog at studiocapponi.com has an RDF 1.0 compliant feed.
