Can the Semantic Web Really Save your Site?

Jeff:

Yesterday, I had the privilege of moderating a panel session at the Online News Association's 2009 Conference in San Francisco on the use of semantic web technologies for publishers entitled "Can the Semantic Web Really Save your Site?"

I was really looking forward to this and was not let down at the caliber of knowledge these guys brought to the table (literally).
