Well the main difference is that you can install SMW on your
webserbver because it's a plugin for MediaWiki, and Freebase is a
knowledgebase that has been made by Metaweb (now Google) and is closed
source.
You may also be interested in Wikidata and Dbpedia by the way :)

Can anyone give their general opinion between the SMW

Strengths and weaknesses?
Future outlook?
Ease of development?
