W3C Launches Semantic Web Activity

Author(s) and publish date

Published:: 9 February 2001

W3C is pleased to announce the launch of the Semantic Web Activity. The Semantic Web is a vision: the idea of data on the Web defined and linked in a way that it can be used by machines for automation, integration and reuse. The Web can reach its full potential only if it becomes a place where data can be shared and processed by automated tools as well as by people. Learn more in the Semantic Web Activity statement.
