I would like to see a discussion about how Siri Suggested Sites works. Say what you want about Google, but they should be admired for taking the high road on content development to support search. Their participation in schema.org, Wikipedia, and other knowledge resources leads to result that can be used at a low level by anyone. It's another matter that we should be concerned that only a few companies will have the capacity to build the brain to support all this creates, which is well beyond browsing the web, a web site like Amazon, or silo'd apps (though a really large and ultimately non-open site like Facebook could become its own world).

+1 totally agree. Support for schema.org, WikiData, etc. is useful, a rising tide that floats all boats.

I don't get why the general hn crowd is antipathic, at best about this topic (I often get downvoted making any semantic web type post). Intentionally making the web into a database usable by anyone is a wonderful idea that will have knock on benefits to every corner of humanity. I honestly think it's just too much disruption for a crowd very focused on making money from vertical disruption, that has given up on larger projects.
