Ouch!

I’m sure this quote from Clay Shirkey is well-known, but it struck me forcibly today:

The Semantic Web specifies ways of exposing these kinds of assertions on the Web, so that third parties can combine them to discover things that are true but not specified directly. This is the promise of the Semantic Web — it will improve all the areas of your life where you currently use syllogisms.

Thanks, I’ll be here all week! Try the veal!
