The Current Web in Context


  • Web is a set of Resources and Links
  • Resources identified by URI's Uniform Resource Identifiers
  • To a user, this has become an exciting world
  • To a machine, however, very little machine-readable information is avaliable
  • The meaning of the documents is clear to those with a grasp of (normally) English.
  • The significance of the links is only evident from the context around the anchor.
