First results from our last online survey “Semantic Web Awareness Barometer” are now available. We conducted the survey togetehr with the Corporate Semantic Web Initiative from the FU Berlin and the Know Center in Graz. We got 256 valid cases (from 561 responses) which reveal some intertesting results concerning the experience , expectations and readiness for Social Software and the Semantic Web. In short:

Social Software
1. Wikis are king! Social Bookmarking stays behind.
2. Differring applications & usage patterns of social software
3. Differring notions about the benefits of and barriers to Social Software
Semantic Web
1. Semantic Web is something familiar!
2. Application-oriented catch up – but where are the young academics?
3. „I taught myself about the Semantic Web.“
4. Semantic Web has a corporate relevance!: Search – the killer app! Integration costs & data control might be important aspects.
5. Differring notions about the barriers?
6. Competencies and collaboration will change …
7. Time to market 2 – 5 years!
8. No differences in region, IT competence & familiarity
We will give a short presentation at today’s Semantic Web Meetup in Berlin. If you can’t join us, don’t worry! You can download the slides right here: Semantic Web Awareness Barometer 2008 – Preliminary Results
A detailed report will be available by April.
