Web 3.0, or The Semantic Web

 

According to Wikipedia,

The Semantic Web is an evolving development of the World Wide Web in which the meaning (semantics) of information and services on the web is defined, making it possible for the web to "understand" and satisfy the requests of people and machines to use the web content.[1][2] 

 

How do all the pieces of data (information) on the Web relate (link) to one another? Why should we care?
