Abstract
In this position paper, we first discuss how modern search engines, such as Google,
make use of Linked Data spread in Web pages for displaying Rich Snippets. We
present an example of the technology and we analyze its current uptake. We then
sketch some ideas on how Rich Snippets could be extended in the future, in
particular for multimedia documents. We outline bottlenecks in the current Internet
architecture that require fixing in order to enable our vision to work at Web
scale.
