The Semantic Web floats in the memepool

The Semantic Web floats in the memepool

Not that this is the semantic web’s 15 minutes of fame exactly, but I found it amusing that memepool has a post referencing an RDF ontology for ” describing relationships between people” developed by Ian Davis and Eric Vitiello. Memepool scoffed:

“Various obsessive maniacs have attempted to create a vocabulary for describing interpersonal relationships”

Over the years I’ve enjoyed visiting memepool and laughing with them at the silly things they reveal people to do. But this one is a little too close for comfort.
