I wrote an earlier post titled: Why We Need Linked Data that shed light on frequently overlooked realities about the Document Web. The real Killer application of the Semantic Web (imho) is Linked Data (or Hyperdata), just as the killer application of the Document Web was Linked Documents (Hyperlinks). Linked Data enables human users (indirectly) and software agents (directly in response to human instruction) to traverse Web Data Spaces (Linked Data enclaves within the Giant Global Graph). Semantic Web applications (conduits between humans and agents) that take advantage of Linked Data include: DBpedia - General Knowledge sourced from Wikipedia and a host of other Linked Data Spaces. Various Linked Data Browsers: Zitgist Data Viewer, OpenLink RDF Browser, DISCO Browser, and TimBL's Tabulator. zLknks - Linked Data Lookup technology for Web Content Publishing systems (note: more to come on this in a future post). OpenLink Data Spaces - a solution for Data Portability via a Linked Data Junction Box for Web 1.0 ((X)HTML Document Webs), 2.0 (XML Web Services based Content Publishing, Content Syndication, and Aggregation), and 3.0 (Linked Data) Data Spaces. Thus, via my URI (when viewed through a Linked Data Browser/Viewer) you can traverse my Data Space (i.e my Linked Data Graph) generated by the following activities: Blog Posts publishing My RSS & Atom Content Subscriptions (what used to be called a "Blogroll") My Bookmarks (from my Desktop and Del.icio.us) and other things I choose to share with the public via the Web Virtuoso - a Universal Server Platform that includes RDF Data Management, RDFization Middleware, SQL-RDF Mapping, RDF Linked Data Deployment, alongside a hybrid/multi-model, virtual/federated data service in a single product offering.\nBTW - There is a Linked Data Workshop at this years World Wide Web conference. Also note the Healthcare & Life Science Workshop which is a related Linked Data technology and Semantic Web best practices realm. \n" ; atom:title "Semantic Web Killer Application?" . @prefix ns10: . sioc:has_creator ns10:this ; sioc:has_container . @prefix dbpedia: . sioc:links_to dbpedia:Linked_Data , dbpedia:World_Wide_Web , dbpedia:Virtuoso_Universal_Server , , , , , . @prefix ns12: . sioc:links_to ns12:rdfbrowser . @prefix ns13: . sioc:links_to ns13:rdf_browser . @prefix ns14: . sioc:links_to ns14:VOSRDF , , , , . @prefix ns15: . sioc:links_to ns15:WWW2008 , . @prefix ns16: . sioc:links_to ns16:Giant_Global_Graph , ns16:OpenLink_Data_Spaces , dbpedia:Wikipedia , , , dbpedia:DBpedia ; atom:source ; atom:author ns1:this ; atom:published "2008-01-10T19:49:00Z" ; atom:updated "2008-02-05T01:32:42Z" ; sioc:has_reply . @prefix opl: . opl:isDescribedUsing . rdf:type sioct:Comment , atom:Entry ; rdfs:label "Re:Semantic Web Killer Application?" . ns10:this rdf:type sioc:User . @prefix rdf: . @prefix ns1: . @prefix foaf: . ns1:this rdf:type foaf:Person ; foaf:made . @prefix atom: . rdf:type atom:Feed . @prefix sioct: . rdf:type sioct:Weblog . @prefix rdfs: . rdfs:label "kidehen@openlinksw.com's BLOG [127] description" . @prefix sioc: . sioc:container_of ; atom:entry ; atom:contains . rdf:type sioct:Comment , atom:Entry ; rdfs:label "Re:Semantic Web Killer Application?" ; sioc:reply_of . @prefix ns7: . ns7:this rdf:type sioc:User ; sioc:creator_of .
