SemanticFocus is a blog dedicated to exploring the development of a semantic web. You'll find thought-out pieces which examine ways in the web is becoming more an extension and conduit for operating on our behalf. The blog has a friendly, and decidedly pedestrian tone which makes it appealing for those who aren't steeped in academia. The blog's goal is in fact to demystify the semantic web and open it up to discussion for everyone. In one of the first entries, you'll find a pretty clear and articulate explanation of what the semantic web is (there are even diagrams). It makes for interesting read for those who know a little, or even a lot about the semantic web. Topics are listed on the side and there's a search bar as well. Readers are encouraged to respond and make comments. The site has a feed too.
