Eyal Oren of DERI, an Irish research insititute, talks about the Semantic Web, and a current project, the semantic desktop. Don’t be frightened: he’s really clear and concise compared to most such explanations.
Assuming you’re now hooked, check out this interview on the subject from DERI’s site.

Yes, there are a couple more videos on Ina’s blog, which I’ve now linked to.
