Inspired by this article at Read/Write Web, I decided to make a search engine out of one of my bookmark collections. Discover Semantic searches about 70 sites dealing with the semantic web (aka “web 3.0″). It covers W3 recommendations, specifications, tools, tutorials, and dozens of blogs about semweb.

If nothing else, it was interesting to see what can be done with the CSEs. I also used Microsoft Expression Web 2 Beta for the coding. Unlike the first version of Expression Web, this one’s got PHP intellisense (language library and code completion) and the built-in web server can run PHP. It’s a lot faster than Eclipse, which really doesn’t like the size of my Symfony projects these days.
