I’m currently working on an analysis of the log files of the Semantic Web Dog Food server. Apart from the obvious queries such as “How much traffic was there?”, “When were the peaks in traffic?” or “Where did the traffic come from?”, Semantic Web-type linked data inspires some other questions as well. Examples of such [...]
So, ISWC2008 is over and I’m back in Galway. What did I learn this year?
There are more and more Semantic Web applications out there, and they are getting slicker and more user-friendly every year. The demo and poster session and the Semantic Web challenges clearly showed that. Some highlights were probably paggr (semantic widgets) by [...]
Hooray, the spanking new Semantic Web Dog Food site is finally ready for prime time at http://data.semanticweb.org! The site has been the central repository for conference metadata (people, papers, talks, organisations, etc.) from the major Semantic Web conferences (mainly ISWC and ESWC) in the past years, but so far has lacked a unified, cross-conference interface. [...]
I just came back from the first VoCamp, held at Wolfson College in Oxford. It was the first in what will hopefully become a series of small, hands-on, community-driven events where people get together to build and work on vocabularies and ontologies for the Semantic Web. Peter Mika had a nice blog post recently on [...]
Over at the spanking new SMILE group blog, there is a post about Dragos’s work on porting Shift to KDE, as part of the Nepomuk project. Of course, it’s not quite as slick as on a Mac. ;)
Shift (as well as Kante and Knoten) have been available as source for a while now, but installing from source is not really a lot of fun if you just want to try it out.
So, now I finally got around to putting together an installer package for Shift, that will just install the binaries on [...]
Arggghhhhh… by some unfortunate series of events, I deleted this whole blog. I won’t tell you the long, boring story, just the bottom line: I will have to start over again. The only good thing about it is that it gives me the opportunity to implement some changes I had planned on doing for quite [...]
Another one of those test posts, just to demonstrate how you can use Shift (formerly semiBlog) and SemClip to move data between desktops. The Shift application was written by Knud Möller, and allows you to produce RDFa code from desktop objects, which you can then use to annotate any webpage. E.g., this blog post! The [...]
