Robert Scoble writes today that he “finally get[s the] ’semantic’ web”, after seeing the work of Radar Networks at first hand.

“Basically Web pages will no longer be just pages, or posts. They’ll all be split up into little objects, stored in a database (a massive, scalable one at that) and then your words can be displayed in different ways.”

Nova Spivack, Radar Networks’ CEO, took part in our most recent podcast, and a listen to that will provide some hint as to the potential of their work for those not quite so well connected as Robert Scoble. Have a listen, and watch this space. Radar Networks, Metaweb, Garlik, Talis, Joost. All these and more are on the verge of moving way past the years of hype to deliver practical and compelling implementations of the Web of Data.

I, for one, can’t wait.
