The semantic web is going to require a heap of structured data where there isn't any right now.

That level of effort needs to be grassroots, but I don't see how it is going to be motivated.

That's the whole point of the article, isn't it? SEO will be the motivation.

Structured data exists in data silos more commonly known as relational databases. This ramp-up will really only occur once SQL servers start speaking SPARQL.
