The concept of the Social Semantic Web subsumes developments in which social interactions on the Web lead to the creation of explicit and semantically rich knowledge representations. The Social Semantic Web can be seen as a Web of collective knowledge systems, which are able to provide useful information based on human contributions and which get better as more people participate.^[1] The Social Semantic Web combines technologies, strategies and methodologies from the Semantic Web, social software and the Web 2.0.^[2]
