A particularly good set of lectures on the Semantic Web.
Got multiple schemas? Got the need to visualise how facts can be inferred where they’re not explicitly stated? Here’s a nice example using Neo4J.
One to watch. DBpedia already extracts a lot of data from Wikipedia. This should improve things, but I doubt it’ll be a complete replacement for some time.
rNews 1.0 has been published. Now we wait with baited breath to see who adopts it.
A 90 minute talk on graph schema (inc OWL2)… not had a chance to watch this yet.
A look at why semantic web is hard, with examples featuring Chuck Norris (as if it wasn’t hard enough already).
Bernadette Hyland provides some useful thoughts for anyone prior to embarking on a project that may be publishing its data (and really, most open web projects should be publishing data)…
Herman has proposed two new SWIG Task Forces to discuss the evolution and interaction of vocabularies and tools; and RDF a vs Microdata.
Draft level (but promising) ideas for context based modelling of linked data in JS.
Very cute indeed. An autosuggest client & service for jQuery that provides renderable objects with detailed info.
In isolation this data is quite useful, when combined with other services its compelling.
A nice review of potential httpRange-14 solutions and the background mindsets.
This looks like it’ll grow into a useful teaching resouce. Hopefully I can find time to read through it in detail soon.
Proceedings from VISSW 2011 with some nice UIs
A note from danja containing the quoteation of the week.
Open Social data spec, which could be useful in all kinds of surprising circumstances where one wants to record that x does y.
Something I’ve been living by for a long time now. In a world where a terabyte of storage costs less than some text books, deleting data is unnecessary and irresponsible.
First draft. Aim: Standard conceptual, environmental and data interfaces for RDF.
Handy list of RDF databases and their import/export capabilities
