Abstract

As we have seen so far in this book, a key feature of the Social Web is the change in the role of a user from simply being a consumer of content. Furthermore, it is not just textual content that can be shared, annotated or discussed, but also any multimedia content such as pictures, videos, or even presentation slides. Moreover, this content can also benefit from Semantic Web technologies. In this chapter, we will describe various trends regarding multimedia sharing on the Social Web and we will focus on how Semantic Web technologies can help to provide better interlinking between multimedia content from different services.
