I have yet to find any value in Twine, though perhaps I simply haven't been willing to make the necessary investment. As for Powerset, I don't see why you think it is superior to Google for searching Wikipedia, especially for casual searchers. I find it at best comparable, and at worst more complex. Wikipedia is really easy to search--you don't need NLP, semantic web tools, or any other rocket science for it. I think Wikipedia would benefit a lot from an exploratory search interface, but that's another story entirely--and not one that any of these guys are going after.

It may in fact be isomorphic to the best keyword search engines. Thus due to the effort needed and insufficent benefit, unless the tags are generated automatically there will be insufficient takeup. What is actually needed (I believe) is the deep expression of semantics that it machine understandable. RDF's OWL's etc. etc. are far from being able to achieve this. The conceptual framework must be much deeper. We at ThoughtExpress have been working on such conceptual framework and theory and can run enterprises on our semantic machine. In July we will launch on line semantic space (nothing like anybody is talking about so far) There is no IT in it :-) Anyway, it is good to see people having a pationate discourses.
