I'm very fortunate that a lot of the pieces I write for IBM developerWorks get featured, either on the home page or in the particular "zone" in which they belong. Today I see that The ultimate mashup -- Web services and the semantic Web, Part 5: Change out Web services is on the home page. I'm particularly proud of this series, which introduces people to all kinds of concepts, from the Semantic Web to RDF and ontologies, which I find absolutely fascinating. Maybe it's the puzzle-solver in me, but the idea of trying to reconstruct the structure of information and how different pieces relate to each other fascinates me.
It's just an area that I don't feel people are taking seriously enough; this is where we're going, people! You may not like it, and it may be extra work, but somebody's going to figure out a way around that, just you wait.
