Semantic web

The Semantic Web is like a computer version of the internet. It is a computer language that makes it easier for computers and people to understand the meaning of words used on websites. It uses tags, symbols and other formats that can be read by computers and people to describe things. For example, if you want to find information on a particular restaurant, the website can use semantic tags to tell computers what type of restaurant it is. This way, when you search for a restaurant, search engines will be able to give results that match exactly what you were looking for.
