While the World Wide Web has provided an infrastructure that has revolutionized the way in which many people go about their daily lives, over the years, it has become apparent that there are shortcomings to its design. Many of the standards developed for the World Wide Web lack a mechanism for representing ``meaning'' in a form that can be easily interpreted and used by machines. For instance, the majority of the Web is made up of a vast collection of Hypertext Markup Language (HTML) documents. HTML documents are structured such that a computer can discern the intended layout of the information contained within a document, but the content itself is expressed in natural language and thus, understandable only to humans. Furthermore, all HTML documents link web resources according to a single type of relationship. The meaning of a hypertext relationship can be loosely interpreted as ``cites'' or ``related to''. The finer, specific meaning of this relationship is not made explicit in the link itself. In many cases, this finer meaning is made explicit within the HTML document. Unfortunately, without sophisticated text analysis algorithms, machines are not privy to the communication medium of humans. Yet, even within the single relationship model, machines have performed quite well in supporting humans as they use go about discovering and sharing information on the World Wide Web \cite{anatom:brin1998,hits:kleinberg1999,topic:haveliwala2002,tagging:hub2006}.
