Oh, yea we fell into the trap set for us. I worked with Microformats, OpenID, FOAF - then it just all disappeared - we got lazy.

@tanepiper @ohmrun Hmm, I think it's also that – while I'm aware of those things' existence – I never saw them used to solve a real problem. FOAF for example is both overengineered and more limiting than even Facebook's ideas of personal relationships (which are very limiting)

@tomw @ohmrun oh yes only now am I seeing the tech and the use cases come to fruition. The only people could effectively run a graph until a few years ago were the big companies. Now it's easier to run and work on these problems.

I see lots of people including is going back to server side, stopping SPA development (which is another thing that killed the web)
