Shared bookmarks: conclusions

Lessons learned

• RDF is most appropriate for this kind of application
• RDF part of the application was done very quickly. Most of the work was on the UI. Adding new features is very easy (multiple topics and importing a topic hierarchy, a couple of hours)
• Possible to process and display the bookmark file with other tools (IsaViz demo)

Next steps and perspectives

• Include the bookmark code in the standard Amaya release.
• Make it possible to store the RDF/XML in any kind of RDF store that has a URI (file on server or RDF store)
• Be able to open more than one bookmark file, do a graph cut and paste, by value or reference between them.
• Interaction between different RDF applications: view RSS or BLOGs as bookmarks, graph cut and paste between applications, ...
• See how to use bookmarks for site maps
• Add any options that would make a bookmark system more useful and fun. Mail us your suggestions.!
