In this paper we describe the application of various Semantic Web technologies and their combination with emerging Web 2.0 use patterns in the eParticipation domain and show how they are used in an operational system for the Regional Government of the Prefecture of Samos, Greece. We present parts of the system that are based on Semantic Web technology and how they are merged with a Web 2.0 philosophy and explain the benefits of this approach, as showcased by applications for annotating, searching, browsing and cross-referencing content in eParticipation communities.
