"I have a dream for the Web [in which computers] become capable of analyzing all the data on the Web ? the content, links, and transactions between people and computers. A `Semantic Web', which should make this possible, has yet to emerge, but when it does, the day-to-day mechanisms of trade, bureaucracy and our daily lives will be handled by machines talking to machines. The `intelligent agents' people have touted for ages will finally materialize."

-- Tim Berners-Lee, 1999
