Web 2.0 (aka. social web) applications such as Wikipedia, LinkedIn and FaceBook, are well-known for fast-growing online data production via their network effects. Meanwhile, emerging Web 3.0 applications, driven by semantic web technologies such as RDF, OWL and SPARQL, offer powerful data organization, combination, and query capabilities. The social web and the semantic web complement each other in the way they approach content generation and organization. Social web applications are fairly unsophisticated at preserving the semantics in user-submitted content, typically limiting themselves user tagging and basic metadata. Because of this, they have only limited ways for consumers to find, customize, filter and reuse data. Semantic web applications, on the other hand, feature sophisticated logic-backed data handling technologies, but lack the kind of scalable authoring and incentive systems found in successful social web applications. As a result, semantic web applications are typically of limited scope and impact. We envision a new generation of applications that combine the strengths of these two approaches: the data flexibility and portability of that is characteristic of the semantic web, and the scalability and authorship advantages of the social web.

In this symposium, we are interested in bringing together the semantic web community and the social web community to promote the collaborative development and deployment of semantics in the World Wide Web context. We welcome constructive papers on, for example: (i) how semantic technologies, especially knowledge representation and collective intelligence, can benefit social web content organization and retrieval; (ii) how social web technologies can facilitate massive semantic content production; and (iii) how to address the requirements, e.g., reasoning scalability and semantic convergence issues, which emerge from the combination.

We encourage submissions of full papers, extended abstracts, demonstrations and posters describing research and applications that deal with (but not limited to) the following topics on social semantic web: * Collaborative and collective semantic data generation and publishing * Semantic tagging and annotation for social web * Data integration * Data portability * Data analysis and data mining * Privacy, policy and access control * Provenance, reputation and trust * Scalable search, query and reasoning * Semantically-enabled social applications: semantic wikis, semantic desktops, semantic portals, semantic blogs, semantic calendars, semantic email, semantic news, etc.

==Submission== Interested participants should submit papers in PDF format to http://www.easychair.org/conferences/?conf=ssw08. Submissions should be formatted in the AAAI Format. Full papers are limited in 6 pages and position papers/demos are limited in 2 pages. Selected papers from the symposium will be published as an AAAI technical report.

==Important Dates== * Oct 3, 2008 - Submission due. * Nov 3, 2008 - Notification of acceptance or rejection * March 23-25, 2009 - Symposium, Stanford University
