Semantic bloggers

Here is a quite complete report from the SWAD-e project about using weblog technologies in combination with RDF to generate and extrat metadata from existing blogs.

They go even through some use cases and scenarios how this could work out and they even mention Stefano Mazzocchi Agora project and some nice MovableType blogger RDF utilities.
This is definitivly inline with the the previous article I posted about leveraging on TrackBack/PingBack to automatically generate data, or like Stefano well said:

"I'm more and more heading myself into the concept of 'data emergence' where you don't go around bothering people to markup their data as *you* like it, but *you* make an effort to collect their data and make a sense out of it."

Is this one of the ways the SW will take off finally?
