The document discusses the development of semantic annotation tools within the INSEMTIVES project. The tools include games to motivate annotation, bootstrapping tools to automate annotation, and tools for annotating web services and media. The tools will be supported by a backend platform providing storage, semantic search and navigation. A work plan outlines development of a generic gaming toolkit, human-driven annotation tools, and bootstrapping tools over a 36 month period by various partners. Future work includes improving the platform and developing an "incentive layer" to integrate tools.

3. Aims and outcomesBuilding a series of end-user tools for creating and using semantic annotations for all kinds of data that have a value as stand-alone tools. Games for hiding the abstract task of annotation behind entertaining games. Bootstrapping tools for automating annotation. Annotation tools for Web services and media.
