have in common What Google , the search for excellence Twitter, the multi Hurraco; Facebook, the vast network; Last.FM, music organizer and YouTube, the most visited source videos? Actually several things, first the existence and suitability of each of these elements with other parties, in second place the increasing tendency to perform / promote business through them and finally, the quality of giving a highly specialized contents to the user in an automated manner.
I will focus on this third point by the novelty of the incorporation of this quality and also by curiosity to see applied to large an idea of \u200b\u200bscale distribution of information that had been conceived from the early 50's but today can be glimpsed in his first steps with new methods of indexing the Internet.
To speak of all this is necessary to refer to the semantic web but what is the semantic web ? Without going into technical fields or detailed explanations can understand this as the capacity of the web to find information through the meaning of what we asked and not matching what we ask, for example, if your search topic are the dogs will match traditional web pages containing the word dog in its content, the web really would not know what we mean by "dog" actually does is search for "P + e + r + r + o "in the right order, the semantic web aims to make the web understands" dog "as a concept is, we understand that an animal, mammal, canine, ie we seek an idea A concept.

The idea of \u200b\u200bsemantic web not end there, you also have to differentiate the ambiguity of words, ie not the same understanding of the concept "dog" as animal that "dog" as a derogatory way of referring to someone. The next big problem comes with the regionalization of words, a simple example is "skirt" in Argentina, this word refers to an article of clothing in Mexico is colloquially known as the goose that lays many eggs or is intended to reproduction.
So that's very simplified Semantic web . It is a complicated concept, still far from done as we think of his ideal, but feasible and possible long / medium term. Understanding this
return to the starting point: The distribution of information using the internet to give users an automated Contents related specialized. This is accomplished (in part) because of social acceptance has been the Internet, for the same reason for today's easy to find very specific content issues if we search the net, but with the right tools can gain access them easily and give continuity automated.
This is the web from the identification of the user can define or "learn" from their practices and habits of the network, so you can easily give the information you need from the knowledge of previous searches.

But how can this happen? The information is too much and often confusing, well not all web content is what makes it more difficult single issue indexed accurate, ie it is a monumental task. Even under these difficulties has found a solution that does not necessarily created with algorithms or programming languages, I mean the resolution of this problem thanks to human interaction in the network. In other words, you create a version of the protozoan semantic web that instead of being controlled directly by the web is controlled by the network users, ie a mechanism that is running through human interaction when the goal is to get it to work automatically.
A couple of simple examples we have them in the use of YouTube and Twitter in the first manage to establish the scope of a content click to fit our tastes automatically by our habits of use, I got busy and the service rating and bookmarks within the site will be closer and more accurate personalized recommendations that will give us the page, this does not mean that semantic web be present at all, simply compiles and sends the data and metadata videos and content that takes us back are cataloged with the same elements, this process has a relatively high error rate, without human intervention but it makes up for YouTube users looking for similar usage patterns and take the rating of other users to believe that we also liked to us. This mechanism (somewhat arbitrary ) achieved largely increase the chances of making correct recommendations in relation to each user.

With Twitter the process is faster because the search within the service to users who represent a more than people we have a direct source of specialized information, a common example tutorials distribution services, having at least a couple of them can have daily access to a lot of tutorials for the subject, and have access to groups of compilations of tutorials, that is, there is the issue we want with the information at any time of day. The problem with Twitter (d despite the new addition of the groups) remains the organization of this content y (hasta para efectos de especialización) el exceso de información.
Debemos entender entonces la existencia de la web semántica dentro de los principales servicios de uso público en internet, al mismo tiempo hay que comprender la utilidad que la combinación del uso de servicios como YouTube , Facebook , Twitter , Last.FM y Google para potenciar la productividad and the acquisition of knowledge and exchange of information of all kinds. What was initially seen as a tool for military and scientific and research has gone into the hands of the civilian population so the leisure and entertainment industry are also benefiting.
The discussion remains open, the uses and applications of semantic web and services that are geared to give us a wide range of possibilities for business, research, joint projects ( Creative Commons ) and entertainment that can be exploited to add the user to the call Information Society .
