Building a Pragmatic Semantic Web

TLDR
A practical approach to adopting semantic Web technologies enables large organizations to share data while achieving clear private as well as public reuse benefits.
Abstract
Many real-world tasks require the acquisition and integration of information from a distributed set of heterogeneous sources. Hence, there's no shortage of opportunities for applications using Semantic Web (SW) technologies. The power of publishing and linking data in a way that machines can automatically interpret through ontologies is beginning to materialize. However, market penetration level is relatively low, and it's still no routine matter for an enterprise, organization, governmental agency, or business with large distributed databases to add them to the Web of linked and semantically enriched data. In part, they may suspect that they're expected to pioneer an approach in which quick wins are few. Moreover, cost and privacy issues arise when ever-increasing amounts of information are linked into the Web. A practical approach to adopting semantic Web technologies enables large organizations to share data while achieving clear private as well as public reuse benefits.

Mining query-logs towards learning useful kick-off ontologies: an incentive to semantic web content creation

TL;DR: An ontology learning method that automatically (unsupervised) builds useful kick-off ontologies from query logs is presented, demonstrating that this new approach plays a significant role as an incentive in the semantic content creation bottleneck.
