What about adding:

Li and Tim’s paper about Characterizing the Semantic Web http://ebiquity.umbc.edu/filedirectory_/papers/295.pdf which gives a nice overview about the current development status of the Semantic Web and clearly states that everything that is not ON THE WEB has nothing to do with the Semantic Web.

A link to a toolkit list might also be interesting for students, for example http://esw.w3.org/topic/SemanticWebTools or http://sites.wiwiss.fu-berlin.de/suhl/bizer/toolkits/index.htm

Cygri posted some websites that show how the Semantic Web may work.

He collects them using the del.icio.us tag “semwebintro”, which I copy from him, so you find a list with more contributions (or also yours?) here:
