I think that sums it up pretty well…

I agree that if Google were to introduce any significant semantic technology they've no choice but to evolve something from the bottom up, working with what they already practice, rather than as you say to invest a considerable amount in some kind of architectural overhaul or regeneration. I was going to write about Google's new SearchWiki. Although far more of a local personalisation tool, it would be great to see if Google could operate on the <em>mass</em> of data it could gather, to unfold and reinforce those naturally forging links - perhaps also to strengthen them, with the possibility to feed back into their index and databases, organically enriching the platform. Andrew,

That which relates will inevitably be understood within groups that showcase their relation.
