"Semantic Web" - like we need another buzzword.

Its quite reasonable to have a simple and appropriate name for a broad and powerful set of emerging technologies. And if they live up to a tenth of the promise, it would be reasonable for there to be a lot of buzz about them.

"new" ? I think the term has been around as long as the web. It was pretty much Berners-Lee's idea.

Maybe it's just recently been hyped up to buzzword status.
