does anyone know who to talk to about what happened with the semantic web community? why am I finding only dead links to beautiful ideas? the tools I've found have been pretty crude, but already very interesting and useful. it feels like I'm exploring some very recent ruin?

this is the story I would like to hear and might be part of my sense that there is something looming here that people are reluctant to talk about. if you have any pointers here/are willing to dm would love any info you can share
