  <default_description>Stuck in the theory stage for years, semantic web technology is finally emerging in practice. This book explains how you can make use of semantic programming techniques to enrich and simplify your web applications, with real code examples you can use immediately.&lt;br /&gt;  &lt;br /&gt;  &lt;em&gt;Programming the Semantic Web&lt;/em&gt; sorts through semantic standards and software, focusing on the technologies and patterns you'll find most useful in today's web programming environments. Each chapter takes you through a single piece of semantic technology, showing how you can use it to solve real problems, such as incorporating data sources into semantically aware applications. This book is one of the few resources available on the practical applications of semantic web.</default_description>

    <body><![CDATA[I read the first half of the book without access to a computer, and it still made perfect sense.  This bodes well for it being a good explanation of how to do semantic web/MetaWeb-style programming without getting the AI religion.
