Nodalities now on the Semantic Web
Posted by Danny Ayers at October 30, 2007 07:03 PM
Last week Masahide Kanzaki kindly provided the code to allow This Week's Semantic Web to be interpreted as Semantic Web data. The code was XSLT, which is supported by GRDDL, the new W3C specification for Gleaning Resource Descriptions from Dialects of Languages. Following a minor addition to this blog systems template, the posts here can now be automatically intepreted as RDF by GRDDL-aware agents. These currently include Tabulator and the OpenLink RDF Browser (here showing the discovery of 556 triples from a single blog post).
As an experiment, I've also created a GRDDL profile which provides RDF statements for every link in a HTML document. When defined as a profile, only a very small addition is needed to a HTML document (which should be valid XHTML) for it to be GRDDLable. The addition for this particular profile looks like this:
...
<head profile="http://purl.org/stuff/glink/">
...
Now all the posts here expose explicit data on the Semantic Web.
Other profiles and transformations (several corresponding to popular microformats) can be found at CustomRdfDialects on the ESW Wiki.
