   Abstract. More recently a new research stream is getting more and more atten-
   tion: the application of Semantic Web technology for social collaborative soft-
   ware like Blogs or Wikis. In this talk I will summarize recent developments
   and provide technology examples for the application of Semantic Web for social
   networks. Examples will especially include Semantic Blogging, Semantic Wikis
   and the Social Semantic Desktop. Additionally I will provide my view how So-
   cial Network Analysis can benefit from the current trend and provide valuable
   data users exploiting these upcoming technologies. Examples will include rec-
   ommender systems exploiting social relationships, but my talk will also go into
   more speculative directions.
