Semantic FAIL!
Tim August 11th, 2008
Consider the following image I came across on Digg:

Cold War all over again? Not really - it’s obvious what happened here. But I think this is a great example of how the semantic web will wrap people, places, and things with context, and these types of issues will become a thing of the past!
Instead of “Georgia”, a semantic agent will see something like http://dbpedia.org/page/Georgia_(country) or http://dbpedia.org/page/Georgia_(U.S._state) and thus have an understanding of how to differentiate the two.
