Web Awareness Barometer – please participate!

This year, which is already beginning to draw to a close, has seen many exciting developments on the Semantic Web, in particular in the area of Linked Data. But, as past technological evolutions have shown: many innovations that researchers and experts get excited about today, won’t even have entered the market the day after tomorrow.

This is why we would like to know how you feel about the state of the Semantic Web in 2008 – which ever position on the web you are hailing from: semantic web practitioner, researcher, or ‘regular’ user.

Please participate in our survey:

Web Awareness Barometer 2008

This is not only an excellent opportunity to give feedback to resarch, development and the industry, but also your chance to win a set of two tickets for the i-Know / i-Semantics conference which is going to take place in Graz in September 2009, worth about € 700. Also, we are giving away three of our Emergency Exit – RDF t-shirts.

The survey is conducted by the Semantic Web Company (i.e. us) in cooperation with Know-Center Graz and the work group Corporate Semantic Web at the Dept. of Computer Science at Freie Universität Berlin.

Please take the survey – your participation contributes to gaining a better understanding of the potentials and barriers for the application of new web technologies, in particular of Semantic Web technologies.

The survey will close on Dec 22 – results are going to be published in February 2009. Thank you for your help and cooperation!
