In this paper we describe the first results of our efforts to build a solid framework for a Semantic Web browser, Power Magpie. For Semantic Web browser we envision an extension to a standard Web browser that augment its features with the ability to act on resources described in Web pages and to find resources semantically related to a Web page. In our vision, the Power Magpie prototype will provide three main features: 1. The ability to automatically find and retrieve ontologies that are related to the generic Web page that the user is browsing. 2. A simple user interface to navigate these data (as well as the Semantic data available in the Web page itself, using technologies such as RDFa or Microformats). 3. The ability to provide services that exploit the discovered data. The current state of the prototype already address the first two points, while the latter can be considered a further step that can be develop upon the proposed framework.

Building the bases for a Semantic Web Browser was presented at this event.
