Linked data browsers

March 7, 2008 at 7:57 am · Filed under linked data, RDF, Semantic web, Tools

Recently, I was playing with several linked data browsers to view data from StYLiD. Amazing to see so many data browsers available today 🙂

There are also many RDF visualization tools like

…. and so on. Wow! what an impressive list. Please add to it if I missed some.

However, I do not think that these generic RDF or linked data browsers will be useful or usable for general users, who do not know what is RDF or Semantic Web. The user will get lost in the complex data network, with lot of wanted and unwanted data, shown monotonously. I feel that it would be better to hide all this data network from the user and rather provide them useful functionalities or present only some useful data in user friendly way.

This new service is based on ClearForest text-analytics solutions. It helps to extract significant phrases from any unstructured text (web documents or office documents). It automatically annotates web content with rich metadata. Any unstructured text can be transformed into an RDF-graph on the fly. Let’s check it out to see how effective it is.

Rdf In Html :: Embedded RDF Wiki :: Talis

This one is called eRDF. I think it is similar to microformats and RDFa.

RDFa

RDFa Primer 1.0

RDFa uses existing HTML constructs and HTML-compatible extensions to specify RDF ‘content’. It is not about embedding RDF/XML syntax into HTML documents.
